“After 15+ years practicing Emergency Medicine, I realized that one of the most prevalent diseases underlying many patients' medical conditions was the disease of obesity. This would frequently lead to patients’ initial and repeat visits, where most often the obesity related conditions such as Type 2 Diabetes, Cardiovascular disease, and respiratory disorders, among others, were managed either in the Emergency Department or upon admission to the hospital.
Having had a lifelong passion for health and wellness, I wanted to pursue a career path that allowed me to help patients lead a healthier lifestyle. At Metamor, through dietary, lifestyle, and behavioral health management, we are able to achieve that. Using a combination of surgical interventions along with medications, including the newer incretin-based therapies such as GLP-1 medications, we are able to treat the root cause of so many disease processes by treating obesity first.”
