I’m frequently asked by doctors and patients alike why I decided many years ago to provide a medical weight loss to my patients.

The story is simple.

I’ve been a Primary Care doctor for 15 years, I love what I do, and I currently treat thousands of patients at my Primary Care office in Newburyport Massachusetts.

Up until 5 years ago, I would tell all my patients carrying excess weight—people that I care about, many whom are friends—that they must ‘get down to a healthy weight’—as soon as possible—in order to reduce or even eliminate—among other things—high blood pressure, high sugar levels, and high cholesterol.

They’d ask me what to do.

I’d answered them, but most times they’d fail—which means in a sense—I failed to provide the right answer and a plan that would help them.

The answer was clear.

After hearing a countless number of patients ask me; “how do I lose the weight,” I decided to learn exactly how.

I joined the prestigious Obesity Medicine Association and became a Diplomat (board certified) member of the American Board of Obesity Medicine.

As a result.

Today we’ve helped—and continue to help—hundreds of patients who needed to lose 10 pounds to well over 100 pounds reach a healthy weight safely, rapidly, and painlessly.
