Our Team
TeleSlim Clinic was founded to bring board-certified, physician-led obesity medicine to patients across Texas without the wait times or drive to an in-person clinic. Every treatment plan — whether medication, genetics-based testing, or nutrition and exercise coaching — is developed and supervised exclusively by doctors who are board-certified in obesity medicine, never by nurses or physician assistants. Our Houston team works together to give patients the same comprehensive, personalized care you’d expect from an in-person practice, delivered entirely by telemedicine.
