💧 Don’t overthink hydration! A simple rule of thumb: take your weight in pounds, divide by 2, and that’s about how many ounces of water you should be drinking each day. Easy math, big impact!

And no, coffee doesn’t technically count… but if it did, our staff would be the most hydrated team around. 😉

Known for her friendly nature, approachable attitude, and team-first mindset, Karen thrives in environments where compassion and collaboration come first.

From a young age, Karen has felt a strong calling to care for others. Whether it’s offering a listening ear, lending a helping hand, or simply showing up with a warm smile, she believes in the power of small acts of kindness, especially in a field where empathy can make all the difference. For her, healthcare is more than just a career path; it's a way to be part of something bigger than herself.

Meet the team!

This is Walker!✨

Born and raised in Roy, Utah, Walker has always been driven by a passion for helping others. For nearly six years, he has been a dedicated part of the Ogden Clinic Weight and Metabolic Center, working alongside Dr. Rigby. In total, he has been with Ogden Clinic for over seven years, an impressive tenure that reflects both his commitment to patient care and his personal growth within the organization.

When Walker first began working under Dr. Rigby, he had no idea how deeply he would connect with the work being done. Over time, he developed a strong passion for the clinic’s mission and Dr. Rigby's teachings. His dedication and leadership quickly became evident, leading to his advancement from medical assistant to team lead, and now to his current role as clinical supervisor. His contributions have made a lasting impact on both the clinic and its patients.

In recent years, Walker has been diligently pursuing his Registered Nurse (RN) degree, with plans to graduate this upcoming December. To complete his training, he will soon be taking a temporary leave to fulfill his Nursing Capstone in Ogden Clinic’s Hematology/Oncology department, a placement that aligns with his aspiration to serve in both departments after graduation. Looking further ahead, Walker has set his sights on becoming a Nurse Practitioner and hopes to one day care for his own panel of patients under Dr. Rigby’s mentorship.

Outside of the clinic, Walker’s often found studying hard, grabbing a coffee from Dutch Bros, caring for his many beloved pets, or spending quality time with his family. He is also a passionate advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights, bringing empathy, inclusivity, and heart to everything he does, both professionally and personally. 💁‍♂️

Meet the Team!

This is Heather Roberts - Heather is an ANCC-certified Family Nurse Practitioner based in Layton, Utah. She began her nursing journey at the University of Utah, where she earned her undergraduate degree, and went on to complete her Master of Science in Nursing at Westminster College. With a strong academic foundation and years of clinical experience, Heather is deeply committed to delivering patient-centered care with empathy and expertise.

Heather brings a uniquely personal perspective to her work in weight management. Having undergone weight loss surgery herself, she understands the emotional, physical, and psychological challenges that often accompany weight struggles. This lived experience fuels her passion for guiding others—especially children, teens, and young adults—on their own health journeys. She is especially attuned to the complex web of factors that influence weight, including genetics, hormonal imbalances, and environmental influences, and she advocates for approaches that go far beyond the traditional "eat less, move more" narrative.

A firm believer in holistic, integrative healthcare, Heather blends conventional medicine with thoughtful, individualized alternatives. She evaluates the full picture—medications, supplements, hormonal function, and lifestyle factors—to help patients find sustainable solutions. Her balanced approach merges the best of modern medicine with homeopathic and natural therapies, with a special focus on hormone health and metabolic wellness.

Outside of her clinical work, Heather expresses her creativity through crafting and enjoys quality time with her beloved dogs. One of her favorite traditions is vacationing at Disneyland with her twin sister—a place where she recharges, has fun, and embraces a little magic.

Supplements: helpful or hype? 🧐
Dr. Rigby breaks it down ⬇️

✅ Pros:
• Can fill nutritional gaps
• Target specific health needs (energy, mood, sleep, etc.)
• Support metabolic health

⚠️ Cons:
• Not all are well-regulated
• Some interact with medications
• More ≠ better (yes, even with vitamin D 😉)

🔑 Best way to manage them?
• Take only what you need
• Pair with food if needed
• Ask your provider—don’t DIY your health!

💊 We carry clinically trusted supplements in-clinic through Focus Pharmacology—ask us what’s right for you.

🧠 Taking 10 different supplements without guidance?
That’s not biohacking… that’s bio-guessing. 😅

📅 Book a visit with Dr. Rigby and get a smart, simple plan.

Meet the Team!

This is Dr. Rohn Rigby — a compassionate Family Practice Physician and Board-Certified Obesity Medicine specialist with over 20 years of experience, and nearly a decade dedicated specifically to obesity and metabolic health. 💥

Originally from Dayton, Ohio, Dr. Rigby now lives in Utah with his wife and four amazing kids. Outside the clinic, you’ll find him staying active through running and biking — not just as a hobby, but as part of the lifestyle that transformed his own health. 🏃‍♂️🚴‍♂️

Dr. Rigby knows the weight loss journey personally. He’s struggled with his own weight for much of his life. But after years of frustration, research, and trial-and-error, he discovered the keys to overcoming insulin resistance and achieving lasting, sustainable health. That breakthrough didn’t just change his life — it gave him a mission: to help others do the same. 🙌

Since then, he’s poured his heart into understanding the science behind obesity and insulin resistance, spending countless hours studying, educating, and empowering his patients. He’s not just a physician — he’s walked the walk.

His staff will tell you he’s the smartest guy they know — but also the most selfless, hardworking, and dedicated physician around. He listens. He educates. And yes, sometimes his wait times run long — because he gives each patient the time they need and deserve. In a healthcare world that’s often rushed, Dr. Rigby stands out by slowing down and showing up. 💙 The wait is worth every minute.
