1 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Let s Get Thin MD Opens Casper Clinic Dr. Girouard Opens Sixth Medically Supervised Weight Loss Clinic Casper, WY (September 29, 2014) -- Michael P. Girouard, MD has brought his successful medically supervised weight loss program to Casper, Wyoming. Let s Get Thin MD is a comprehensive medical weight loss treatment clinic created and directed by Dr. Girouard, the most experienced weight loss physician in the United States. Dr. Girouard already has five successful weight loss clinics in North Carolina, and has now opened the clinic s sixth location in Casper, Wyoming. The new weight loss clinic has opened at 5890 East 2nd Street and is accepting new patients. We are really excited to bring our clinic to Casper, and very appreciative of the positive reception we have received as new members of the Casper Chamber of Commerce. With my wife, Dr. Jonie M. Girouard, being born and raised and a licensed physician in Wyoming, we already have patients coming to us from within the state, so opening a clinic in this market makes us more accessible to our area patients and closer to those traveling from other locations. Dr. Girouard is already the leading physician on the forefront of this battle in North Carolina and intends to do the same in Wyoming. Considering the fact that Wyoming's obesity rate is 27.8 percent, up from 20.1 percent in 2004, and is one of five states exhibiting a significant increase in adult obesity, we obviously want to change that with The Dr. Girouard Advantage program offered through our medical clinics.
2 One of the unique aspects of Dr. Girouard s clinics are its professionals. In each location, patients find medical professionals trained to assist their needs. We hire only the most qualified medical professionals for each clinic. Our patients see highly trained medical doctors, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants to meet with them and discuss their individual weight loss needs and challenges, as we determine a path to success for each one. Obesity - An Escalating Epidemic The World Health Organization has described obesity as an escalating epidemic and one of the greatest neglected health problems of our time. The medical community finally understands that for many, being overweight is a true medical condition and should be professionally treated. said Dr. Girouard. In June of 2013, the American Medical Association classified obesity as a disease and The American Academy of Family Physicians called on its members to offer assistance to obese patients. It has always been my firm belief that for many patients, medically supervised weight loss is a critical component of a successful program. Obesity and being overweight can bring on a host of medical problems that need to be treated by a physician. High blood pressure, heart disease, high cholesterol, diabetes, arthritis, and certain types of cancer are only a few. As a physician, I believe we have to treat the whole body, not just the disease. It s a root-cause approach. I look at each one of these diseases and ask, is this a symptom of being overweight. And most times, the answer is yes. So let s treat the cause of the problem too! Obesity is a chronic disease often complicated by and co-existing with comorbid conditions, explained Dr. Girouard, who possesses over 32 years of experience and has treated more than 170,000 patients through his practice. The program he developed and refined over these years demonstrates proven success and continues to attract patients to his clinics from all over the US and Europe. I have seen the terrible consequences, both physical and emotional that can occur from being overweight, explained Dr. Girouard. "Obesity is the fastest growing health
3 problem in America. It affects nearly two-thirds of Americans, and is the second leading cause of preventable death. The Dr. Girouard Advantage The Dr. Girouard Advantage starts with the careful selection of licensed medical professionals. "Our unique training program based on 32 years of experience in bariatric medicine equips our providers to offer the very best and unique weight loss experience. That is the essence of The Dr. Girouard Advantage. At each of the Let's Get Thin MD clinics, our patients see highly trained medical doctors, nurse practitioners, or physician assistants to individualize their weight loss treatment program as we determine a path to success for each one. The key-elements to The Dr. Girouard Advantage include: Physician designed. Physician researched and updated. Medically supervised. Dietary modifications can be achieved through real food found at the grocery store or through supplements. Moderate exercise is important for sustained weight maintenance, but is not a requirement to lose weight. Nutritional supplements are encouraged. Patient evaluation and examination by a medical practitioner with routine monitoring of vital signs, body fat composition, metabolism, etc. Medication augmentation is utilized to help decrease and manage hunger and treat plateaus. Dr. Michael P. Girouard Dr. Girouard was born and raised in Chalmette, LA. and attended Southeastern Louisiana University where he earned a BS in Chemistry with minors in Mathematics
4 and Physics. He graduated from LSU Medical School in Shreveport, LA and trained in anesthesiology at Ochsner Foundation Hospital in New Orleans, before entering into bariatric medicine and creating the Let s Get Thin MD clinics. Dr. Girouard had been overweight most of his life. When he was 6 years old, he was so overweight that his parents had to have a communion suit tailor made for him. He lost weight in junior high, going from 185 to 110 pounds in one year. In 1990 he lost almost 100 pounds going from 265 to 170 pounds and has maintained this weight since then. Due to his own personal battles with weight, he has a genuine compassion for others dealing with these same issues. This care and concern became a mission to find a treatment program to help others manage their weight. In 1981, he started his first weight loss practice in Louisiana. Dr. Girouard opened his practice in Huntersville, NC, in May of 2000 after having built a successful practice in America's fattest city - New Orleans. He has a true goal and desire to beat the burden of obesity and has dedicated over 32 years of his professional life treating and researching better approaches to weight management. Let s Get Thin MD clinics are based upon his extensive research of medical literature and are rooted in clinically proven scientific principles. Looking to the future, Dr. Girouard also currently holds one patent for a group of new obesity drugs and has other patents pending. He hopes to begin clinical studies and believes these new drugs will prove to be more than a treatment, but a cure for obesity. The success of the program is demonstrated by the patient's results and the simple fact that in 14 years the clinics have arguably become the largest of their kind in America, with patients coming from as far away as FL, NY, CA, WY, and even France. Let s Get Thin MD The medical weight loss and wellness clinics created and operated by Michael P. Girouard, MD is the largest physician supervised weight loss clinic in North Carolina with five offices extending from Charlotte to Raleigh. Dr. Girouard is a pioneer in the field of medical weight loss having treated over 170,000 patients since opening his first clinic over 32 years ago. Dr. Girouard believes in preventing the myriad of diseases
5 associated with obesity by tackling his patients weight and appetite challenges through The Dr. Girouard Advantage. This weight loss program is physician designed and directed and incorporates a combination of strategies including dietary modifications, moderate exercise, nutritional supplements, and medication augmentations. His practice has patients from across NC, reaching northward to VA and NY, westward to CA, and as far away as Europe. Dr. Girouard also currently holds one patent for a group of new obesity drugs and has other patents pending. He hopes to begin clinical studies and believes these new drugs will prove to be more than a treatment, but a cure for obesity.
