A Personalized, Concierge Approach to Medical Weight Management

Choosing the right doctor for your child's weight management is an important decision. You want a physician who truly understands the complexities of weight regulation and provides solutions that are both compassionate and science-based.

I work with families who are committed to finding real, long-term solutions and who are looking for a doctor that will be their trusted partner in this journey.

Since I only take on a limited number of clients to ensure high-quality, personalized care, I offer a free introductory call to determine if this is the right fit for both of us.

Free Introductory Call

Before taking on a new client, I offer a free introductory call to determine if we’re a good fit.

Comprehensive Intake

You will complete a detailed intake questionnaire covering medical history, previous weight management efforts, and any relevant family history.

In-Person Consultation

A mandatory comprehensive evaluation completed in person.

Medication Management

If we determine that medication is a good option for your child, we will schedule a visit to discuss medications.

Ongoing Support

Follow-up visits are tailored to each family’s needs

Ensure a Good Fit

Before taking on a new client, I offer a free introductory call to determine if we’re a good fit. I keep my practice small to provide the highest level of care, and this call helps ensure that I can give each patient the attention they deserve.

How We Start

  • A discussion of your child’s history and your goals for treatment.

  • An overview of how my practice works and what to expect moving forward.

  • An opportunity to ask questions and determine if this is the right path for your family.

In-Person Consultation

The first visit is a comprehensive evaluation and must take place in person at Discover Health in San Francisco (Los Angeles visits may be available if enough demand exists).

What Happens at the First Visit

  • Full review of your child’s weight history

  • Exploration of underlying factors – We discuss metabolic testing, genetic testing, lab work, and specialist referrals where necessary.

  • Create a personalized plan.  Every child is unique, and we’ll determine the next steps together.

  • Initial Discussion of Medication Management – If together we decide that medication may be an appropriate option, we will schedule a separate Medication Management Visit to go over the details before starting treatment.

Medication Management

If we determine that medication is a good option for your child, we will schedule a dedicated visit to discuss medications in detail before prescribing. This ensures that families feel fully informed and confident in their decision

What This Visit Covers

  • Risks and benefits of the chosen medication

  • What we know (and don’t know) about duration of treatment

  •  What we know (and don’t know) about long-term use in teens

  • How to use the medication properly for the best outcomes

  • Potential side effects and how to manage them.

Follow-up and Ongoing Support

Follow-up visits are tailored to each family’s needs.

What Happens at the First Visit

  • For families not using medication – Follow-up visits are scheduled based on what is most optimal for your family. The frequency and focus of these visits will be personalized to your child’s needs and goals.

  • For families using medication – Monthly follow-ups are required during the dose escalation phase, then at least quarterly visits for long-term management.

  • Follow-up visits may be:
    ✔ In-person at Discover Health (SF)
    ✔ Telehealth visits (with vitals taken at your pediatrician’s office, if they are willing to assist).
    ✔ Additional visits available upon request.
