Most people think about quick fixes for health… but few stop to ask: “Will this still benefit me in 5 years?”

The truth is: evidence-based medicine isn’t about a temporary solution — it’s about building a healthier, stronger body for the long term.

As a quadruple board-certified physician in Internal Medicine, Gastroenterology, Obesity Medicine, and Nutrition, I see firsthand the difference between short-term trends and proven approaches.

Invest in your future self today — because your health is the only investment that pays you back every single day.

5 years ago today, I officially announced the opening of my practice via social media, sent out a press release, emailed everyone I knew. I remember having the chime set to know every time a visitor went to my new webpage and was so nervous. I wondered what people would think? Would patients see the worth? Would I fail? But, I did believe in my dream, my mission, and my passion for helping patients live healthier lives without the frills.

Let’s keep it going — head to the website today and check us out! We’ve come a long way 💜

It’s been a long time in the making, but my secret is out....my new practice, Gut Theory Total Digestive Care is now accepting appointments!

During training I realized the importance of diet, gut health, and healthy weights in overall health. Beyond traditional Internal Medicine and Gastroenterology training, I was accepted in the competitive Nestle Clinical Nutrition fellowship and then an advanced bariatric endoscopic training fellowship as well. I’m quadruple board certified in Internal medicine, Gastroenterology, Obesity Medicine, and Nutrition.

My practice highlights the importance of overall health through nutrition counseling, addition of pharmacologic and minimally invasive, incisionless bariatric endoscopic technique such as intragastric balloons or endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty.

For more info please check out my website at www.guttheoryhealth.com and sign up for upcoming promotions and giveaways.

Opening October 1st and accepting appointments starting today!

Most people think they are already eating balanced meals 🫣

But during our first appointment, we take a detailed history and I’m able to show them that actually they aren’t…..

You have to consider your basal metabolic rate, your goals for building muscle mass to determine how much protein you need, focus on getting appropriate fiber as well. But, the trick is doing this while achieving a calorie deficit for weight loss. That is where I come in to help you create meal plans. 👩🏾‍⚕️

Another trip around the sun and so much to be grateful for! 🙏🏾

A very different birthday from any over the past decade of jet setting but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Today I’ve been able to reflect on the life I’ve prayed for and get to live every day and I still wake up sometimes like who am I?

My family & friends mean the world to me and fill me and my life with so much joy. Thank you all for every text and call - it always means so much for people to take time out of their days.

Thanks husband (who will never see this lol) for making this day special! 😘

Happy Friday-Eve 🫶🏾
