Primary care internist and Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine. English and Korean.
Most primary care physicians are not trained in obesity medicine. Most weight-loss clinics are not staffed by primary care physicians. Patients get sent between them, and nobody ends up holding the whole picture.
Dr. Lee holds both. That is the reason this practice was built the way it is: one physician who can read a FibroScan, interpret a metabolic panel, adjust a blood pressure medication, and treat obesity as the medical condition it is — in one visit, against one chart.
Opinions about your body are worth less than data about it. We establish the baseline first.
The goal is not to add to your list. When the numbers allow it, doses come down.
It's a condition with physiology, not a character assessment. Care here reflects that.
Book a first visit and we'll take a full baseline — body composition, liver, and labs — before anything is prescribed.
So we know whether to hold a near-term slot for you.
Pick as many as apply. This tells us how to run your first visit.
A first visit usually needs to be in person — that is when we take the baseline measurements. Follow-ups can be either.
Our office will call you back to find a time. Nobody else sees this.
Someone from the office will call you back, usually within one business day. If you'd rather not wait, the front desk is on (508) 820-8332.
