Anthony Pick MD Endocrinology, Diabetes, Obesity & Metabolism

12/04/2025

Our care team at True Health is expanding, and we’re proud to announce the addition of our first physician specialist.

Dr. Anthony Pick comes to us with over 20 years of endocrinology experience and a stellar record working in the Chicago area treating obesity, diabetes, and other conditions.

With him on staff, our patients now have the unheard-of benefit of getting endocrinology care without ever leaving their primary care office. That means no more waiting months for a specialist, no trips to multiple offices, and best of all, no waiting to feel your best.

Read Dr. Pick’s full bio on our site, and get to know the rest of our ever-expanding care team there as well.
