He is the founder and president of Bahamas Wellness Clinic, whose mission is to reduce lifestyle-related death and disease in the Bahamas through physician-directed interventions with patients. Dr. Lightbourne and his team have had tremendous success in its medical weight loss and diabetes reversal programs which have become its signatures services.
Rotarian Nurse Douglas was on hand to offer free health screenings and counseling, and Rotarian Sheryl Fax prepared onsite healthy food for Rotarians. She also displayed edible plants as options for Rotarians to consider planting in the backyard gardens.
