Our Medical Team
The physicians who lead your care.
Most GLP-1 care stops at the prescription and the scale. MetaOrtho is a specialty GLP-1 management practice led by two board-certified physicians — an endocrinologist and an orthopedic surgeon — who review candidacy, medication and dose fit, side effects, nutrition, strength, and body-composition monitoring so your plan is matched to you, not a template.

Why a multi-specialty team for GLP-1 care?
GLP-1 medications reach further than the scale shows. They reshape metabolism, muscle, bone, and nutrient balance at the same time — and most weight-loss programs only watch one of those. MetaOrtho pairs a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with a board-certified endocrinologist so the systems most affected are each watched by the specialist trained for them.
Bone & joint expertise
Our orthopedic surgeon brings deep expertise in bone biology, density, joint mechanics, and the structural changes rapid weight loss can cause.
Endocrine & metabolic oversight
Our endocrinologist directs the metabolic side of care — GLP-1 dosing context, lab interpretation, and the hormonal drivers of bone and muscle change.
Protocol co-designed
Both specialties co-design the standard of care so patients receive coordinated oversight across muscle, bone, joint, and nutrition — not handoffs between siloed clinicians.
Care that comes to you.
MetaOrtho is fully telehealth — every visit, every protocol update, every follow-up happens from wherever you are. No travel, no waiting rooms, no compromises on the depth of care.
