I’m Farah Myers, Family Nurse Practitioner with Cool Creek Family Health. There are many ways I feel we are reshaping the healthcare experience for individuals and small businesses here in Carmel, Indiana. At our direct primary care clinic, we offer a concierge-like service that puts your health and comfort first. If you or someone you know could benefit from a weight-neutral healthcare approach, we invite you to learn more about what we offer.
Weight Neutral puts the focus on you…not the numbers.
One of the key aspects of a weight-neutral clinic like ours is the shift in focus from numbers to individuals. Many patients who live in a larger body are all too familiar with the narrative of “If you lost some weight, your back/knees/health issue wouldn’t be a problem.” This approach can be frustrating and dismissive, often ignoring the complexities of health and wellness.
At our weight-neutral clinic, we take a different approach. We see each patient as the unique and special individual they are, not just as a number on the scale. Rather than immediately attributing health issues to weight, we work to understand the full picture of your health. Whether it’s managing chronic conditions, addressing acute concerns, or focusing on preventive care, we tailor our approach to your needs.
Being weight-neutral also means we take the individual experience at our healthcare clinic into account. Consider the typical scenario at many healthcare facilities: you’re brought back to the exam room and, almost immediately, directed to a scale in the hallway. This often means stepping onto that scale in front of anyone passing by, potentially feeling exposed or judged. That experience alone is enough to keep some people from seeking preventative healthcare at all.
In a weight-neutral clinic like ours, we take a different approach. Your weight is only taken if it’s necessary for something such as medication dosing. If you prefer, we offer blind weigh-ins, ensuring that you never have to see the number on the scale at all. Additionally, each exam room in our clinic is equipped with its own scale, ensuring your privacy and comfort.
When you choose our clinic, you’re choosing a healthcare experience that’s centered on respect, dignity, and personalized care.
