Description: Obesity is associated with significant comorbid conditions including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and cancer, as well as reduced quality of life and poorer mental health. While primary care providers often manage obesity-related comorbidities, obesity itself is not often directly addressed and remains undertreated. This educational program supports the consistent delivery of evidence-based obesity counseling and treatment in primary care settings. It focuses on improving the understanding and skills of primary care clinicians in working with their patients to manage their weight through evidence-based actions based in cultural humility.

I'm an Internist by training with additional certifications in Obesity Medicine, Clinical Lipidologist, and Advanced Diabetes Management. I'm passionate about caring for populations with obesity and overweight and discussing the topic with others. I own and operate my own independent full-time Obesity Medicine/Clinical Lipidology medical practice in Oklahoma City, OK. I'm actively involved in the Obesity Medicine Association (OMA) and received the honored designation of Fellow. Outside of medicine, I love travelling and languages.
