YOUR HOST/SPEAKER
Dr. Melissa Gomez is a board-certified Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine Physician who provides in-person and telehealth services in New Mexico. She has long been aware that traditional Patient care has become too expensive, too profit driven, too time restricted, disjointed and focused on keeping people sick rather than making people well. As a result she created a clinical experience that is focused on wellness. She believes in curing chronic disease, on helping patients get off of medications and to stay healthy. She focuses on metabolic diseases that are 100% curable such as: insulin resistance, obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, gout, ovarian syndrome, sleep apnea, IBS, high cholesterol, thyroid disease management and anti-aging - through dietary, exercise and lifestyle modifications. https://thrivingwithdrg.com/
