Dr Purcell and her staff have been awesome in cheering me on and making sure I am comfortable with my program. I know I'm solely responsible and accountable for my progress, but they are always on my side providing me with options, alternatives, and resources. Even the not so positive feedback is positive because it keeps me going. I would not have been able to lose the 73 pounds without their help.

“Empowering, Effective, Positive. This program helped me get myself back again.”

I am especially grateful for the education Dr. Purcell provided me about how my body works and why it responds they way it does. As a result, I don't have to rely on my willpower to force something to happen. I can now rely on my wisdom because I have the information I need to make smart decisions about my body and what I put in it and what I do with it.

“Incredible support on my journey to fitness and health!”

Dr. Purcell is great. She understands the body is a system and how it works. She works proactively with me to manage my weight loss and uses tools available to apply science, be it medicines, working with a nutritionist, or my exercise approach. Maybe more importantly, she's helped me understand my weight loss which is much more than just loosing pounds and being good most days. Dr. Purcell is great to work with and I can't recommend her highly enough!

“The best medical support I've ever had with diabetes control”

Dr. Purcell is highly skilled in educating me on the body functions of diabetes and how to support my body to completely get off insulin and bring my sugars down by eliminating body fat especially belly fat increasing muscle and lean at the same time. I'm so grateful for her turning my health around for the rest of my life and equipping me with tools and education to continue.

“Changed My Life!”

I have been coming to Capital Diabetes & Weight Loss Center and seeing Dr. Purcell and the team for about a year. When I started here I was over 380 lbs now I'm at 250! My life has completely changed, I feel amazing and will never go back. If you are looking to improve your health Dr. Purcell is the person to help you get there.

“Awesome!”

I had always failed to lose the weight and keep my diabetes under control, but since I've been seeing Dr. Purcell, I have been doing great!

“Dr. Purcell is amazing!!”

I have struggled most of my adult life with my weight. I was an athlete in college and as soon as I had children, stopped playing sports regularly...BAM! I was fat!

Under Dr. Purcells's guidance and treatment, I've lost 51lbs in a year. One step at a time...one day at a time...it's about the long haul.

This clinic, the education and expert treatment has changed my life!

You won't be sorry! The first step is the hardest... the BEST step is realizing your goal!

“Has changed my life!”

I have been seeing Dr.Purcell for 2+ years. With the direction and support of this office, I have improved my weight, A1c, fitness level and over-all health. What a blessing all the staff has been.

“Incredibly Helpful!”

Dr Purcell has helped me get on track with my weight and insulin resistance. I'm feeling better than I have in years. She's incredibly helpful, she listens and spends time with me at each appointment and truly cares about my well being and progress. I can't recommend her enough!

“Amazing and knowledgeable!”

Dr. Purcell has a wealth of knowledge and it's obvious she continues to do her research in order to give her patients the most up to date information.
I have been told by a few patients that she talks a bit fast for them but I just suggest they ask her to slow down or explain what she said because she is very open to receiving that kind of information. I think it's her enthusiasm to share with and help others that causes her to speed up. Her excitement to get the information out is infectious!

“Absolutely fantastic!”

Superb care, despite my occasional lapses in following the plan...

“To the point and very helpful”

Dr. Purcell is great at getting right to the point and eliminating excuses. Awesome knowledge and encouragement.

“Great Dr. Listen's to my issues and helps me with my problems for weight loss”

“Amazing”

She is wonderful - Knowledgeable

“Amazing”

Amazing transformation with Dr. Purcell's program. I have lost almost 50 lbs in 8 months in which 43 lbs is fat. I have just 20 lbs to go but, I look and feel 100 time better. I recommend going and seeing Dr. Purcell if you are ready to feel better. She is kind, compassionate, and really wants you to be successful. Thank you Dr. Purcell, I have struggled all my life to stay thin and to loose weight. But now it is so much easier because of you.

“proof is in the a1c”

I was very much skeptical of this process. I thought I had been trying hard to lose weight in the past but Dr. Shawna and her team showed me I could reach not only my weight loss goals but my a1c goal. I am excited to share this journey with my husband who also has been losing weight. My friends and family see a change in me not just the physical but the mental changes. I am feeling stronger and healthier each step.

“Shawna changed my life!”

Shawna changed my life my a1c has been 5.3 for a year and i have lost about 50lbs. She is so helpful and compassionate about what she does. If anyone needs a great doctor for Diabetes I would strongly recommend her.Thank you Shawna for changing my life for the best.

“Can't get enough...”

Dr. Purcell's energy level is always maxed out; she is very focused and driven. Her energy motivates me to want to do more. She is very detailed with her observations. She expects nothing but the best for her patients and she is committed to seeing results. Having her as my doctor, is the best thing I have done. I can actually say, I look forward to each visit I have with her. It never fails, I learn something from her and am Inspired before I leave.

“Follow-up with meds and weight”

It's always a mixed feeling coming to see Dr. Purcell. I'm usually nervous coming in to see her because I never know whether I"ll be scolded or not (lol). But really, I love that she keeps me accountable with everything, and at the same time, praises me for a job well done. I'm so glad that she's my doctor. :-)

“Weight Loss”

I was referred from my primary doctor to Capital Diabetes & Weight Loss Center in Nov. 2017. To date I have lost 39 pounds and it has been almost painless. Dr Purcell is awesome and knows exactly how to help each patient lose weight. She targets the metabolic issues and it makes it easy to lose weight. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone that needs to lose weight.

“Amazing!”

Dr. Shawna has taught me so much over the last 3 years, not only about weight loss but about myself. Understanding the way our bodies works (or don't after years of improper eating!) and learning to eat correctly have been extremely important especially for someone who began her life with an irregular eating pattern that probably set up a life long set of problems.

“Love these people. All of them are caring and encouraging.”

I'm very happy coming here and learning to take better care of myself and improving my health. Before finding this clinic, I thought it was too late for me to improve my health, but they have proven me wrong about that and keep me encouraged to keep on getting better. I can't say "thank you" enough.

“A life changing journey!”

I have been under the care of Dr. Purcell for a couple years now. The thought that I would lose 100 lbs. and keep it off was something that I previously thought was unrealistic. NOT TRUE! The office staff, nurses and Dr. Purcell have supported me and my family through this journey. I have two beautiful daughters who also sought care and have reached their goal weights. It brings my heart joy to see them comfortable in their skin again. Thank you!

“Finally the help I needed”

Dr Purcell has been what I have been looking for. For 4 years I have been struggling with my weight and kept telling doctors, I think it may have to do with my hormones. I have never been over weight, but had a stressful experience in my life that gave me high blood pressure, thyroid issue and weight gain, I am mostly a healthy eater and could not shed and weight. Dr Purcell has found what I have been looking for. I am now down 30 pounds, and am continuing my weight loss journey.

“Dr Purcell is amazing!!!”

She is amazing, always upbeat, and motivating. She makes me feel excited for the future of my weigh loss journey.

“Awesome Dr. with Exceptional knowledge of Diabetes”

Dr. Purcell makes me think, use my brain to help make my self better. With her help I have lost 60 lbs and gone down 3 almost 4 pant sizes. She will reassure me when I have doubts that I am not doing what is needed to keep the carbs away and the weight down.

“Incredibly helpful!”

Great experience

“Amazing!”

I cant say enough about Dr. Purcell, Thank you so much! Moving from NY and only being on Trulicity, which help get me from 230 to 187. But Dr. Purcell in a short 7 mths, knew the right key to active to get me even lower which is now 156 and more active and feeling great. She has been the best thing that has happened to me since being in WA.

“On my way to healthy!!”

The first step is the hardest...but you know that because you've tried everything before finding Dr. Purcell. Knowledge is power and it's a great feeling knowing the past failures were NOT caused by lack of willpower or motivation..there is a chemical reason!!

I'll never regret the knowledge I've gained and the way I feel after becoming a patient of Dr. Purcell's. I'm down 70+ lbs..and continuing toward my goal... I can't wait to see where I end!

“Dr. Purcell really knows her stuff”

Dr. Purcell is very knowledgable. She is a fast talker but makes sure that you are keeping up with all she has to say. she is very energetic and motivating. she has a great attitude. I enjoy my appointments with her, I think they are vital for my weight loss journey.

“Fantastic and comprehensive care!”

When first introduced to Dr. Purcell I was overweight and suffering with Type II diabetes. My previous physicians were excellent, but failed to trigger my motivation to undertake important changes. Not so with Dr. Purcell - she was extremely clear in explaining my medical issues and very, very comprehensive in her ongoing assessment of my body chemistry. She did in fact motivate me to lose weight and control my blood sugar, as well as other factors that impinge on my health. She is the best!

“Dr.Purcell and staff are amazing!!!!!”

When i first started I was out of shape no energy for a long time, now I am feeling great full of energy got my life ambition back and living life. I am 51 yrs. old bur i do feel like i am a 25 yr. old kid again all thanks to Dr. Purcell and the amazing staff at CDWLC.

Thank You,
LeRoy Turner

“Dr Purcell saved my life!”

I was referred to Capital Diabetes & Weight Loss Center in 2016, my diabetes was out of control, I was taking numerous medications and insulin shots, depressed, sick and weighed 252 lbs. Dr Purcell's knowledge, experience and individual hands on care, directed me to where I am today. I have control of my Diabetes, do not take insulin shots daily any more, my moods and depression has ceased, and I feel great. The staff is friendly and they care about their patients.

“Dr. Purcell is full of encouragement and support! She has changed my quality of life, I can finally enjoy it!!”

I had a low self esteem until I decided to reach out to Dr. Purcell and get help. She is by far the best doctor I have ever seen in my entire life. She listens to me and my concerns, and we work together for solutions. Her personality and encouraging nature makes you want to see her every week. I finally believe in myself again, because she believed in me first!
I had no energy, no motivation and no smile. Dr. Purcell has walked beside me every step of this journey and encouraged me to keep pushing forward.
I climbed my first mountain at 44 years old a few weeks ago, I have energy and lifestyle tools for ongoing success in my fitness journey because of the tools and resources she has given me.
I guess the best part about this doctor above everything else, is that she helped me see the person hiding inside of myself, a strong, beautiful person with lot's of life to live.
Dr. Purcell you are an amazing person and wonderful Doctor!!

Dr. Purcell is Olympia's top Internal Medicine Doctors. She has been my primary care provider for the past three years and I've learned exactly what makes a great primary care provider. I have family history for cardiovascular disease and diabetes and what I appreciate the most about Dr. Purcell is that she teaches me about proper nutrition, work life balance, and how all of these factors play a key role in my overall health. Recently, my company informed me that I may have to relocate and I was happy to learn on my most recent visit with Dr. Purcell that she's exploring Telemedicine opportunities (e.g. mobile app / video based appointments).

“Can't Believe My Results”

I never would have believed that I would be a completely different person in only 9 months. When I started with Dr. Purcell I never believed that I could accomplish everything that she said I could. With her guidance and support with advice and recommended reading I have turned myself around. I now listen to everything she says and concentrate on doing the best I can. Thank you for everything. I look forward to my next meeting.

“A new lifestyle of eating & not just "another diet"”

The information given to me by CDWC has been life changing. I have found a way of life that not only am I losing
weight but I feel fabulous. I sleep better. The aching joints are gone. I have learned how to eat and lose weight and not feel hungry or feel deprived. This will and has become a lifestyle and not "just another diet!

“Life Changing”

Dr. Purcell and her staff have been game changers for me. I have learned about my body in so many ways and with that learned how to listen to my body when it comes to food and gastrointestinal issues in general. I am working towards a completely different me and it wouldn't be happening without Capital Diabetes and Weight Loss Center. Definitely happy I listened when another happy patient finally sat me down and told me of her great success.

“Simply Amazing!”

Dr. Purcell and her staff are simply amazing! After a lifetime of struggling with my weight, Dr. Purcell showed me that it wasn't just eating less and moving more that was the problem. With her knowledge and medical assistance I'm down over 75 pounds and still losing and learning.

Great diagnosis no one else caught, lost 40+ lbs & educated me. Excellent diagnostic tools, nutritional info, & great supportive team. Dr. P talks very fast, so be ready - do review your body comp info before your appt.
Dr. P makes it clear your health is your responsibility and she (& team) can & will help you. Be ready to discuss 'WHY' you may not have followed through! This may not be a practice for a 'passive' patient.
Dr. P is a very sharp, excellent diagnostic physician.

Thank you for your guidance and motivation. I'm excited to have a new chapter in life and with the weight loss now have the energy to enjoy it.

“Life is NOW AmAzInG”

I've been on my journey with CD&WL for 18 months now. I've lost 130 pounds with their assistance, guidance, and support. I'm confident that if I have a question or concern I can call them and get an immediate response. I know that my results may not necessarily be typical but if each patient follows the guidelines they are given they will make progress. Life is about choices and we have to be willing to make the choice to put our forks down and pick our feet up.

“Amazing results”

August 4, 2016 I started my weight loss journey. I would have never thought I would get to where I a currently am if you asked me 2 years ago. I had failed at every "weight loss" option I tried, basically starving myself to loose weight.
She has challenged me every step of the way and it has worked for me to keep me motivated. I recommend the work she does to all my friends asking me how i did and how can they change.

Thank you!!!!!

This method of weight loss and Dr Purcell's program are great.

I began to see Dr. Purcell in January of 2018. It is now September and I have lost a total of 75 pounds. I feel better, I have more energy, and my life has truly begun to change because of how much better my health is. My blood pressure is normal, my type 2 diabetes is under control for the first time since I was diagnosed. Dr. Purcell takes the time to understand what is going on with your health and crafts a plan tailored to your individual situation. She has a great staff too!

“surprising on how much fat i've lost”

she has tought me what not to eat and how to change my life style to loss the weight and lower my a-1 c

“Dr Purcell”

Dr. Purcell has changed my life. Before I became her patient I was overweight, exhausted, starting to have high blood pressure, joint pain, and the list goes on. I have been seeing her for 8 months. I have lost 60 pounds, have more energy, sleep better, and I don't feel deprived. I have learned about sugar and insulin and what it does to your body. I can't thank Dr. Purcell enough for everything she has done. I have a new life and it is amazing!

“Feeling worlds better!”

I finally made the decision to seek out support this year after having gestational diabetes 4 times, having pre-diabetic A1C numbers, and watching my father go through a kidney transplant due to diabetes. I'm so thankful I was connected with the Capital Diabetes & Weight Loss Center. I have learned a ton changed my eating habits, and as a result, changed my life. I'm feeling (and looking) so much better and am no longer pre-diabetic. Can't thank Dr Purcell and her team enough!

“Don't wait, go NOW!”

Dr. Purcell is a miracle worker. I have struggled with my weight my whole adult life. In 2009 I had my back fused which made me weight go higher. I was getting back injections every three months and I had to give up most of the fun things in life. 7 months after seeing her, I am down 48 pounds. I haven't had a back injection in a year, I am hiking, swimming, riding bikes- everything I love but had given up due to my weight and back pain. I can't say enough how much this has changed my life

“My Life has Changed in Eight Months”

I was sick and felt like I was dying at 41 years old when I came to see Dr. Purcell, just eight months ago. Since then I have lost over 100 pounds and have completely turned my life around. I feel 100% better in all aspects of my life. This is the first time in my life I haven't been hungry. Seeing results like this and feeling like I have my life back just motivates me further! I cannot begin to thank Dr. Purcell and her staff for helping to save my life!

“No MORE DIETS!”

I can't explain how healthy I feel. I have not felt this good and energetic for 20 years. The ability Dr.Purcell has to hone in on what my body needed to start burning fat is amazing to me. I am a medical professional and in spite of all my knowledge I struggled endlessly with weight loss. However, the support from the medicines, helped my body respond in a way I couldn't get it to do with just diet. I am happy with the eating plan and do not miss the carbs I so frequently indulged in!

“awesome”

I have learned how to eat and fill full and control my eating.. Thank you

“I have hope again”

I had given up on ever getting healthy. I was 52 years old and dying of hypertension and type 2 diabetes. Through a series of events I ended up with Dr. Purcell and her staff treating me. She grabbed my hands, looked me straight in the eye and said- "Rick, we can beat this, you are going to get healthy!" I didn't believer her at first, but now I have lost over 61 pounds, my A1C is coming down and I have hope again. I'm going to live to see my grand kids! I am so grateful to Dr. Purcell!

“Life Changing”

I've been to several doctors to treat my type II diabetes over the past 10 years and Dr, Purcell is the only one that has helped me achieve success. My A1C has gone down 2.5 points in 6 months. She is compassionate, knowledgeable and listens to your personal needs. I feel very fortunate to have her as my doctor.

“Weight Lost”

I have been seeing Dr Purcell for just over a year. In that year I have lost 65 pounds and lowered my A1-C. I have felt very supported by Dr Purcell and her staff of nutritionists, nurses and receptions. I am so glad my primary care doctor referred me to Capital Diabetes & Weight Loss Center!
