Obesity
Weight is a medical issue braided into a dozen others: sleep, joints, blood sugar, mood, mobility. We address it honestly — without moralism — as part of ongoing primary care.
How we care for it at home
- Realistic goals set to what improves function and comorbidities.
- Nutrition guidance grounded in what's actually in the kitchen.
- Consideration of GLP-1 and other pharmacologic options where appropriate.
- Coordination with bariatric surgery and specialty programs when indicated.
What we watch for
- Blood sugar, blood pressure, lipids, and sleep apnea.
- Joint pain and mobility over time.
- Mood — obesity and depression are frequently entangled.
- Muscle mass, especially in older adults on aggressive weight loss.
