Summary

  • I am board certified in Internal Medicine as well as General Preventive Medicine. I am also a diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine. Additionally, I have received training in health coaching.

    My practice offers a holistic weight loss program using a combination of health coaching techniques to improve the patient's diet/exercise/stress level/sleep and evidenced-based weight loss medical management. Their first visit includes a thorough history, physical exam, body composition analysis and review of their current medications. Subsequent visits are every 2 weeks on average and may be done in person or via telemedicine. The patient only ever communicates with me directly. My services are not covered by insurance.
