With a deep understanding of biological, environmental, medical, psychological and social factors that contribute to weight and metabolic health, Dr. Kallamadi designs a tailored treatment plan that goes beyond generic advice.
Patients can expect a judgment-free space where their concerns are heard, experiences validated in an evidence-based medical approach to meaningful weight loss. For patients who value culturally appropriate respectable care while facing barriers to care or struggling with comorbidities of weight or simply looking for a clinically competent internist specializing in sleep and obesity medicine, Dr. Kallamadi offers an empathetic, expert guided path.
