VBHFS

We aim to support our patients on a path toward mental wellness.

🎉Congratulations to Dr. Tarun Kumar! 🎉

We’re proud to share that Dr. Tarun Kumar is now board-certified in Obesity Medicine 👏

In addition to being a triple board-certified psychiatrist in Adult, Child/Adolescent, and Forensic Psychiatry, this certification reflects advanced training in the medical management of obesity and metabolic conditions — particularly when weight changes are influenced by psychiatric illness, psychiatric medications, hormonal factors, or medical complexity.

This added expertise reflects our practice’s ongoing commitment to thoughtful, evidence-based care that considers both mental and physical health 💙

We’re excited about the ways this depth of training can support our patients and our community.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Kumar on this important professional milestone 🥳
