•  We recognize that excess weight, caused by poor nutrition and inactivity, are the root cause, or greatly contributes, to many common diseases.  Some of these include hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, esophageal reflux, sleep apnea, and even some cancers.  
• Scientist are now discovering that how a body metabolizes fat is tied to signals given off by our body.  Dr McCarthy will help you discover how to control those signals which will enable you to finally shed those unwanted pounds.
• Our goal is to prevent and slow the progress, or in some cases reverse the damage brought on by poor health habits.  We understand that excess weight is not a matter of choice or lack of willpower, but rather a medical disease that requires long term treatment. 
• At NovaABC we utilize up to date, safe, and scientifically proven methods to help you achieve and maintain weight loss.

WHY SHOULD I CHOOSE NovaABC?

Most persons have experienced success with special diets or commercial weight loss centers.  Unfortunately, a great majority of patients eventually regain all the weight they had worked so hard to lose.  Perhaps boredom, monotony, hunger, frustration, a vacation, or some other unforeseen event interrupted or triggered the reversal of all the effort that was expended in losing the weight. 

Dr McCarthy is a member of the American Board of Bariatric Physicians.  There are only a little more than 300 board ceritified bariatrians in the country.  Bariatric medicine has been gaining more and more attention in the medical community as physicians are beginning to realize that excess weight is a disease which is at epidemic proportions in our society.  In the past physicians merely treated the diseases which were caused by excess weight.  At Nova ABC we take a proactive approach to medicine by treating the root cause of these various diseases.  Dr McCarthy has dedicated all his attention in recent years in developing the best weight loss program possible.  Utilizing his extensive medical knowledge and diagnostic skill he has been successful in helping numerous patients in achieving their weight loss goals.  (Check out our site at www.locateadoc.com for patients testimonial's)  Many specialists in the Northern Virginia area refer their patients for treatment with Dr. McCarthy.

We are all challenged daily with temptations of tasty foods, life's stresses, and time constraints that prevent us from eating and exercising the way we should.  Some patients may also be constrained by physical problems.  On top of all this, excess weight in itself creates metabolic changes that counteract even our best efforts!

At NovaABC we approach each patients condition individually.  Dr McCarthy will look at your lifestyle, metabolism, genetic background and underlying medical issues, he will then design a diet plan specifically for you.  He will monitor your progress, assessing your individual situation, adjusting your program as needed, in order to help you achieve maximum and lasting success.

If a lengthy, healthy and energetic life is your goal, don't hesitate call today for your First Step to a Healthier YOU!!!
