Dr. Jaime Le - M.D, FRCPC, ABOM
Dr. Jaime Le is a trained Respirologist and Sleep Medicine Specialist. Currently practicing in Guelph Ontario, Dr. Le has treated thousands of patients whose sleep apnea was related to obesity. This inspired him to develop a more permanent solution for the treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea through weight management, a real alternative to CPAP machines and dental devices.
Dr. Le has been a diplomat of the American Board of Obesity Medicine since 2018 and is a respected speaker and expert advisor in the industry.
Dr. Le has developed a nonbiased, value-based weight loss program, HEAL, Healthy Eating Active Living. The program incorporates behavioural therapies, nutrition education, pharmacotherapy, and exercise to combat the toughest aspect of weight loss, which is the maintenance of weight loss. His telemonitoring services also address the safety concern for patients who have comorbidities that require more attention.
From Dr. Le
"There is no such thing as the best diet. All eating styles are considered based on the individual's comorbidities, and food preferences while recognizing that our eating preferences change over time. The program believes it is more valuable to understand underlying nutrition principles to navigate through food choices so that you may have your cake and eat it too.
We are confident that you will be a better person mentally and physically through the completion of the program."

From Samantha
"Dr. Le and his HEAL program have allowed me to focus on preventing the chronic health issues I've experienced so many of my patients struggle through.
