Announcing: Dr. Cluff's weight loss program: |
| Dr. Cluff is a Family Physician who practices in North Irving, Texas, with North Texas Health Care Associates – Family Medicine (see www.YourPCP.com). He is big on preventive health, the most important part of which is living a healthy lifestyle. See www.HighFiveTLC.com for more information (“TLC” stands for Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes). Also see www.NoHandCoughs.com to learn how to avoid spreading and catching an upper respiratory infection. Getting your physical exam (i.e., preventive health visit) on a regular basis is wise. |
Four years running! (2008-2011) |
Dr. Cluff sees patients of all ages, and has many interests, including pediatrics, women’s health, thyroid disorders, sports injuries, adolescent health, dermatology, and minor office procedures (e.g., skin biopsy and excision, ingrown toenail removal, wart treatment, liquid nitrogen treatment, skin tag removal, abscess incision and drainage). However, his greatest passion is weight management. Developed as a result of his own battle, which he won (necessity is the mother of invention), he has a weight loss program for adults called SvelteLife (see www.sveltelife.com), and a program for kids called KidTLC (see www.kidtlc.com).

What is a Family Physician?
A Family Physician is a specialist that takes care of the entire family, for their entire life (i.e., “from womb to tomb”). He or she is also a preventive health care specialist, with the mission of preventing the onset of disease. However, Family Physicians are also trained to manage most diseases. In fact, a good Family Physician will know how to manage (well) over 90% of the conditions that he or she encounters; he or she will also have the wisdom to know when to refer you to another doctor, and to which doctor to refer you. Because of their broad training, and the fact that Family Physicians look at the whole person, they know that a certain symptom (e.g., chest pain) may be caused by many different conditions or organ systems. As such, you may feel comfortable trusting your care into the hands of a good Family Physician.
