Durham area gyms/PTs??

 My dad's girlfriend has been amazing throughout this whole experience(only two weeks out but still ) and she has offered to pay for a personal trainer or gym membership. Anyone have an recommendations for someone/ place that has experience working with post bariatric people? Obviously I'm not about to jump into it right away but I always like being prepared. :) 

Hi,

Yes I do.  I actually work at a Wellness Center/Curves.  We are launching into a holistic approach and building a weight loss center.  Bariatrics will be a big part of it since this is where my heart is.  I would love to talk to you more if you could email me at [email protected].  Dr. DeMaria who has the wellness center in Raleigh, also a bariatric surgeon, is working close with us on this and that makes me very excited! 

I hope to hear from you soon.

Our facility in North Raleigh is dedicated to providing the very best care AFTER bariatric surgery-  we have one of the best eating behavior psychologists in the region with Dr Martin Binks, we have a well-known registered dietician with over ten years experience caring for bariatric surgery patients, and we have a physical therapist available to assist people trying to become more active and begin exercising-- we even have a full gym facility onsite specializing in CrossFit.  If you watch the "Biggest Loser" TV show this season you are seeing CrossFit --- Bob Harper their long-time trainer has recently become CrossFit certified and introduced CrossFit workouts into the training program.  Why?   because it WORKS!  Our facility provides TOTAL bariatric care for people AFTER WLS!   www.newhopewellnessNC.com
