Dr. Sasha De Jesus

MD, DABOM

“I’ve witnessed so many patients trying be healthier through different diets and exercise routines and feeling like they’ve failed, when the reality is that those diets and exercises failed them. Then they bring up their concerns about their weight to their doctors just to be told ‘you should try eating less and exercising more’. We’ve come to learn and understand so much about the cause of excess weight in the last several years, yet patients are given outdated recommendations. My mission is to create a safe, judgement-free environment for patients to discuss their metabolic/weight concerns, and receive a personalized holistic plan combined with evidence-based, up-to-date medical management to help them achieve their health goals. With that mind, the foundations for MetaboliK was set”
