Hello everyone,

One of the biggest challenges of people struggling to lose weight properly and maintaining long term results is the cost of medical weight loss programs. As you may know, obesity leads to a number of other complications such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and several types of cancer.
Therefore, as a weight loss doctor, I'm planning to create an affordable online course for everyone across the world who is challenged by weight problems. This can transform their health and life for good.

You're invited to share your input on the creation of this course by filling out a short 8-question survey below which takes less than 5 mins.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards,
