PATIENTS DESERVE RESPECT TOO!
Is it OK if we talk about your weight?
Many patients in the traditional healthcare system feel frustrated and unheard when a doctor simply tells them to “eat less, move more” to address health issues like high blood pressure and sleep apnea.
Dr. Lessing discusses why it is so important to find a doctor who listens and treats overweight and obesity with sensitivity and empathy.
Obesity Treatment With Semaglutide?!?
Struggling to lose weight?
Obesity is a chronic & complex disease that requires a multifaceted approach.
It’s not always as simple as just eating less and moving more. For some people hormone issues can make weight management a bigger problem.
Semaglutide, a medication that increases GLP-1 hormone levels, is a promising treatment option for addressing the hormone imbalances involved in obesity.
In this video, Dr. Suzy Lessing educates that using Semaglutide to treat obesity is not only safe but effective. This medicine helps treat a hormone problem related to obesity in a similar way that hypothyroidism and menopausal symptoms are treated with hormone therapy.

Antibiotics! When Are They Needed?
When do you need antibiotics?
As a healthcare provider, Dr. Lessing has been receiving lots of texts and emails from patients lately, asking if they need antibiotics for their illness. While antibiotics can be a helpful tool for treating bacterial infections, they’re not always necessary.
Dr. Suzy Lessing shares valuable healthcare tips on certain situations when antibiotics should be used such as strep throat, pneumonia, and bacterial sinus infections.
Did You Know That Food Can Affect Your Mental Health?
I recently read This is Your Brain on Food by Uma Naidoo, MD and it was a great read! Dr. Naidoo is a psychiatrist at Harvard and she has a special interest in how nutrition affects mental health; she is also a trained chef.Â
