What is Obesity Medicine?

Dr. Amir is a board certified obesity medicine specialist. Obesity medicine is the medical practice centered around the treatment of those suffering from the conditions related to having a BMI over 30. Obesity is the most prevalent chronic illness in America today and it is quickly becoming the most prevalent chronic disease in the world. Those who are living with obesity are aware of the difficulties they face in changing their lifestyle habits. It is not as simple as “eat less and exercise more”.
