Cheryle R. Hart, M.D. I am the founder of the Wellness Workshop, a medical weight-loss clinic in Spokane, Washington. I completed my specialty training at the Mayo Clinic in 1984 in Obstetrics and Gynecology and am board certified. I have held appointments as associate clinical professor of medicine at the Mayo Clinic and the University of Washington Medical School. I currently specialize in bariatrics, the medical treatment of weight problems. My experience through twenty years of medical practice, as well as my own personal experience with weight issues, has led me to develop a specialized weight-loss wellness clinic. There my patients receive comprehensive weight-loss treatment and learn important weight-maintenance skills. This unique clinic addresses what I have found to be the four main aspects of a successful weight-management program: medical, nutritional, fitness education, and emotional support. Mary Kay Grossman, R.D. I am the nutritional adviser for the Wellness Workshop in Spokane, Washington. I am an honor graduate from Washington State University with a degree in dietetics. I have spent seventeen years in the nutrition field and was the regional dietitian for a group of assisted-care facilities throughout Washington, Idaho, and Oregon before joining the Wellness Workshop in 1996. I developed my expertise in the dietary management of insulin-resistance syndrome because of my own personal story and success. My creative and simple approach has enabled thousands of clients to understand and finally control their insulin-resistance weight problems. About the Wellness Workshop Founded in 1996, the Wellness Workshop is located in Spokane, Washington, in a beautifully restored Victorian homelike setting. Our in-house dieticians teach cooking classes on low-fat eating with linking and balancing. Our staff therapists facilitate support groups and provide individual counseling. Our self-development and self-renewal programs include workshops on fashion, self-defense, self-esteem, and other self-nurturing topics. Fitness courses teach our clients fun, inventive ways to increase their activity. Our medical staff provides individually developed and physician-supervised weight-loss programs. Over 90 percent of our three thousand patients have been successfully treated at our clinic. Our wellness maintenance program helps to ensure that our clients continue using the Link-and-Balance Eating Method as a healthy way of eating long after the extra weight is gone.
