If you’re committed to losing weight, our personalized and supportive program, Anew10 …To GO!, will help you take control of your life whether you want to lose 10 lbs, 200 lbs, or anything in between. We are here to help you reach a happy and healthy body composition. Losing as little as 5-10% of your body weight can have significant health advantages. The program is only available via video chat (Zoom or other HIPPA compliant chat).
What are Anew10 …To Go Facetime visits?
Anew10 … To Go! is a simple online program that uses health coaches & informative learning tools that teach you how to safely lose weight, improve your health, and prevent diabetes. The program consists of an initial facetime meeting with Dr. Voisine to assess your goals and need for FDA approved appetite suppressants followed by 12 weekly facetime visits with a health coach. We use a HIPPA-compliant FaceTime app to meet with you.
Are appetite suppressants prescribed?
We follow guidelines written by the Obesity Medical Association and if indicated the physician may prescribe FDA approved appetite suppressants such as Contrave, phentermine, Plenity, Qsymia or other medications.
Anew10 …To Go! Can be used with any weight loss program.
We understand the importance of individualized plans for weight loss. A “one size fits all” is unlikely to be successful. Based on data from the Diabetes Prevention Program, the Anew10 program recommends low to medium glycemic index foods, healthy protein, and fat sources. Our goal is to help you lose weight and keep it off. For those choosing to follow the Anew10 program, weekly food plans, recipes, and some instructional videos are available.
Can I use insurance to pay for the program?
We do not bill individual plans. However, a superbill will be provided which you may submit for reimbursement from your insurance plan, HSA, or FSA. Reimbursements will vary and we suggest you check with your individual plan before your first appointment. Cost for the initial 30 minute physician consultation is $195.00. Our Anew10 Health Coaches are $45.00/week for 30 minutes, this includes access to the app which helps track your progress. You may opt to discontinue the program at any time. Most patient/clients lose up to 10 % of their body weight in the 10 week program.
How long does the initial consultation last and what does it include?
The FaceTime physician visit consultation will last approximately 30 minutes. You must register and complete your online health history and questionnaire prior to this visit. Following this visit, you will schedule a weekly FaceTime meeting with one of our health coaches. The Anew10 manual with the learning modules will be emailed to you for use with the health coach visit.
What is a patient portal?
A patient portal is a secure HIPAA-compliant online website that gives patients convenient 24-hour access to personal health information from anywhere with an internet connection. Using a secure username and password, clients can view their progress, vital signs, and lab information. Clients can also schedule appointments, send secure emails view appointment history, and receive prompt answers to inquiries. You will also have access to the Anew10 Health Coach app.
Is exercise part of the program?
Yes. Based upon your body composition your health coach will recommend and update your exercise program to include walking or interval walking combined with light weights or resistance bands. We have partnered with Momentum Gym in South Portland to provide online instruction videos for exercise and movement.
What equipment do I need to purchase?
Prior to your appointment with the physician, you will need a biometric scale that measures your weight, body fat %, muscle mass, and hydration – most are less than $50.00 and available through Amazon or retail stores. You will also need a fabric tape measure (for waist measurement) and a blood pressure machine (for clients who have a history of high blood pressure). A list of equipment recommendations will be emailed to you once you have enrolled.
How do I start?
It’s easy! Complete the registration form and we will send you a list of available appointments for the initial consultation with Dr. Voisine.
