BULFINCH MEDICAL GROUP PATIENTS:
“I looked forward to the weekly group meetings, because they offered unconditional support in a totally non-judgmental atmosphere. Dr. Koven is a wonderful speaker and her jovial, down-to-earth manner made me feel completely comfortable while at the same time she was imparting important information to the group. I especially appreciated the way that Dr. Koven and Suzanne Russell-Curtis seemed to delight in all of the participants’ small successes along the way.”
“This program has been life-altering for me. I was able to lose 36 pounds over the course of 8 months and my blood pressure has returned to the normal range without resorting to medication. I have totally changed my eating habits by reading labels at the supermarket, eliminating take-out food, bringing my lunch, and by eating low sodium home-cooked meals. I have incorporated walking into my daily routine and I have begun taking yoga classes, which has been highly beneficial both physically and as a stress-reduction technique.”
“Group dynamic was very helpful. Coordination with nutritionist and NP was a very important contribution.”
“Both group instructors were very knowledgeable and helpful. I loved the group setting and sharing experiences. Dr. Koven has a wonderful sense of humor and sets everyone at ease.”
“The stress management exercises were very helpful… very powerful. Breaking down all the components – exercise, breathing, emotions, nutrition – was really beneficial. Thanks very much!”
“Since starting the program, I watch my serving sizes. I am walking more and more aware of what I’m eating. I don’t beat myself up if I have a bad day.”
