Looking to achieve and maintain a healthy weight over 45?

You’ve come to the right place!

It’s time to get off the midlife diet rollercoaster.

Address the root cause of your weight gain, reduce inflammation, balance your hormones, and improve your lab numbers — while the weight you’ve been battling finally drops away.

Diets Don’t Work. There. I said it.

Contrary to what we’ve been told for decades, losing weight isn’t about calories.

In fact, if you’re struggling to lose weight in your 40’s, 50’s, or beyond, you are probably not eating enough.

Let me explain…

For decades you’ve been told all you need to do is eat fewer calories than you burn and presto! You lose weight. Most people — including many medical professionals — believe that overeating is the cause of weight gain.

But that just isn’t true.

Does this sound like you?

  • I go on diets but the weight just won’t come off like it used it.
  • I’m tired all the time – I have so many things I want to do, but I don’t have the energy or stamina I need – Help!
  • My digestion isn’t running very smoothly anymore.

You diet. You cut calories. You exercise. You jump on the latest fad diet craze.

But nothing works. And you end up right back where you started, convinced that it’s your laziness or lack of self-discipline that’s keeping you stuck riding up and down on the diet roller coaster.

But I have good news for you: you’re not lazy or undisciplined.

YOU are not the problem.

The promotions and gimmicks suck you in because honestly, we want it to be easy. But all the diets ultimately leave you feeling stuck, frustrated, and unhappy when the weight comes piling back on.

The promotions and gimmicks suck you in because honestly, we want it to be easy.

But all the diets ultimately leave you feeling stuck, frustrated, and unhappy when the weight comes piling back on.

The diet industry lied to you.

Here’s the truth:

M

Traditional diets don’t work

M

Eating fewer calories than you burn does not guarantee weight loss

M

Shedding excess weight isn’t about eating less and moving more

M

There is no effective one-size-fits-all approach

Dr. Susan has found the well-kept secret…

Stubborn excess weight is a symptom.

If you can’t seem to lose weight, it’s because something is out of balance in your body.

Once you fix that issue, the weight will come off naturally.

When you were in your 20’s and 30’s you were probably able to cut back for a few weeks and shed excess pounds. But now that you’ve gotten older, that just doesn’t work anymore. You might even worry it’s too late…

But it’s not.

It is possible to lose weight, regain your energy, and feel really good again.

But it’s not going to happen from going on another diet — even a “healthy” one.

You’ve got to solve the underlying issues that caused your weight gain in the first place.

 

And that’s what I help you do.

Dr. Susan’s goal is to:

N

Restore the imbalances that caused your weight gain in the first place

N

Revive your energy

N

Have you eating foods you enjoy

N

Get you turning heads with your renewed confidence — and leaner body!

Client Results

READ WHAT DR. SUSAN'S CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT WORKING WITH HER

First were adjustments through the years then arthritis in my thumb. After supplements, arthritis pain is gone. Recently, I saw her for relief from osteopenia and bowel irregularity. Oh my!

I’ve recommended her. She is friendly, professional, a good communicator and most of all, she gets results!

Diane Harker

Initially, I went to Dr. Plank for chiropractic needs, but after a trip to the hospital revealed potential gallbladder issues I talked to her and made an informed decision.

She is genuinely concerned about her patients. She calls to check up on you. She takes her time with you; she cares, and is knowledgeable in her field.

Dr. Plank is the first doctor who actually listened to my concerns and made me feel like I was more than a number.

My gallbladder has improved and I have lost weight since going to Dr. Plank.

Mary Ann Veitz

I first came to Dr. Plank with major digestive and gastrointestinal issues, mostly dealing with chronic diarrhea. I was also having symptoms from being overmedicated for hypothyroidism, severe hair loss, feeling jittery, insomnia, and a skin rash.

Upon my first visit with Dr. Plank, I was immediately impressed with her compassion, enthusiasm, and determination to not just cover my symptoms with a band-aid but, instead, to dig and discover the root causes of my symptoms and to do whatever it takes to find a healing solution.

Dr. Plank leaves no stone unturned. She attacks every issue with passion, compassion, knowledge, wisdom, and common sense. Her expertise encompasses many avenues of healing, seeking as many alternatives as it takes to solve an issue.

For anyone who is searching for avenues of healing not found down the traditional road to wellness, I highly recommend Dr. Susan Plank.

Donna Shuster

I’d been diagnosed with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and had gone to many specialists without getting any positive results from their recommendations.

I’d heard good comments about Dr. Plank so thought I’d see if she could help with my problem. I am learning so much about nutrition and how important it is to a healthy life.

Dr. Plank recommended I have a special blood test that determines what my food sensitivities are. She’s very knowledgeable about her field of work and is willing to answer any questions one might have.

I encourage people to make an appointment with her. She’s professional, she’s caring, and she doesn’t rush through her appointments. She treats her patients as human beings, not just a number.

And that’s where I come in.

Dr. Susan Plank - Headshot

Hi, I’m Dr. Plank!

I’ve spent the past 3 decades helping thousands of clients reduce inflammation, regain their energy, balance their hormones, improve their lab numbers, and lose weight.

I take a holistic and functional approach with my patients because — believe it or not — weight gain, digestion, and disease are all related. And if you can get to the root cause of these issues, you can reclaim your health, energy, and vitality.

"After 3 months of working with Dr. Plank, not only did I lose 20 pounds, I gained a wealth of knowledge about how my body works."

I can’t thank Dr. Plank for all that she’s done to help me become a better, healthier version of myself – for me and for my family. She actively listened to my concerns.

She provided me with program options that fit my budget. She educated me. Most of all, it’s evident that she truly cares for her clients and their overall well-being.

I look forward to continuing to work with Dr. Plank on my journey in the new year!

“Down 6 pounds in 10 days and I never expected to run the whole thing.”

2 weeks of working at anti-inflammatory eating and 3 days of taking the supplements I ran a very successful 5K race when I haven’t run 3 miles at one time all year. At 62, I never expected to run the whole thing.

I have learned so many things which I couldn’t have done without you. I am glad I did this program.

I am feeling stronger with more energy to get through my day.

Jane Lechnir

Before coming to Dr. Plank, I struggled with focus and temper issues, leading me to believe I had an attention deficit condition. I worked with psychiatrists and medications that would routinely stop working after a matter of time.

As a competitive athlete and career woman, I knew that I had to find a better solution.

Over one summer, Dr. Plank had me tested for food sensitivities, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, and other system imbalances including thyroid.

We introduced supplements and corrected my diet accordingly, which created a balance I had never felt before, mentally, emotionally, and physically.
