    He is optimistic and very knowledgeable. The food advice was especially helpful on drinking water (how much) , portion sizes and food types that are healthy vs what's not healthy. He gave much needed encouragement and explained obesity is a disease not lack of willpower. I'm looking forward to getting on Wegovy and getting healthier..not just weight but other health numbers to improve also. Can't wait to make it happen.. I'm motivated and Dr. Friedli and his team are very encouragingšŸ™‚

    Dr. Lucas Friedli allows me to be me and ask the odd questions that are probably outlandish but make me wonder since my husband puts the thoughts into my head. Dr. Friedli listens to me and can recall information about what I am doing for exercise, whether he is reading the questionnaire before coming in the room or just able to recall the information. It is noticed and appreciated. I have seen a Dr. for 25 years now and she is always mixes me with someone else. Yikes. So thank you Dr. Friedli.
