Lifestyle Medicine Strategies this New Year: New Group Programs
As we wrap up 2024, we're taking a moment to celebrate the incredible journey we shared during our Type 2 Diabetes Group Visit Program. Under the expert guidance of our Nurse Practitioner, Gardner Mack, participants gained valuable insights into diabetes management while building a supportive community of peers.
Throughout the six-week program, attendees gained many skills, tools, and insights into diabetes management strategies. From mastering blood sugar monitoring to discovering new approaches to nutrition (thanks to our wonderful guest speaker, Registered Dietitian Ruben Lespron), each session brought new learnings and shared insights. The conversations were rich, the support was genuine, and the progress was inspiring.
Introducing Our Plans for this New Year
Building on this success, we're excited to fill you in on some of the group programs we have coming up in the next few months! Our group visits are designed to help you not just set resolutions, but create lasting, meaningful change in your health journey.
What to Expect:

Group Programs at TCLM offer structured learning with open discussion, allowing participants to both learn from experts and share their own experiences and insights. Whether you're continuing your wellness journey from our diabetes program or just starting out, you'll find valuable tools and support here.
Why Group Programs Work
Our diabetes program, Group Visit Series led by Dr. Ruan, and Geny Moreno's Mind-Body Medicine Programs showed us the power of community in achieving health goals. When participants shared their challenges with blood sugar management or finding time for exercise, others offered solutions they'd discovered. These real-world tips often became the most valuable takeaways from our sessions.
We've designed our New Year program to harness this same collaborative energy. There's something powerful about knowing you're not alone in your health journey – that others understand your challenges and are rooting for your success.
Join Us for a Fresh Start
As we move into 2025, we invite you to be part of this exciting new chapter. The program offers a fresh perspective on health and wellness, focusing not just on what to do, but how to make it happen in real life.
Here's to a healthy, supported, and successful 2025!
