Healthcare providers have the great privilege and responsibility of helping people maintain and improve their most vital asset, their health. Healthcare providers are in a prime position to counsel patients to prevent and decrease overweight, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and the numerous diseases associated with it.

“ We have gone from couch potatoes to avid walkers since LiveWell. Jan was on a walker & just walking to the end of the street and back. Now she is walking 5 miles/day. Thanks so much for being there and providing us with so much! ”

Unfortunately, the behavior changes that patients need to make are difficult, and providers do not always have the time or the tools to support their patients consistently. LiveWell can help! Refer your patients to LiveWell and we will provide them with: motivation, accountability, reliable information, ongoing support, and access to a variety of healthy community resources.

People turn to their physicians for sound medical advice, and they trust the directions they are given. When you refer a patient to register for LiveWell, it will be FREE and they will receive:
