I had a dream…..my vision of Obesity Medicine Association’s international growth, global outreach, and collaborations has come to life.

Lupin and Insignia’s efforts in Goa, India, culminated in a successful Best of Obesity Medicine India 2026. I am humbled and honored to represent the Obesity Medicine Association as a global speaker.

On May 16-17, 2026, we successfully brought the Best of to India and engaged in productive discussions with local leaders and endocrinologists. The global nature of the obesity pandemic necessitates international collaborations, and we are on the right path.

Full steam ahead.

Many to THANK today and everyday : GOD and my patients for putting their trust in us.

5 days at with have been epic. The staff are top-notch in their organization skills; unbeatable.
Sharing a few highlights for me :

- Blessed to be sworn in as “President elect” of the Obesity Medicine Association for 2026-2027

- Recipient of the prestigious OMA “Clinician of the Year” award - truly an honor, coming from an organization of ~6000 Obesity medicine specialists.

- Delivered engaging talks on “Nutrition” (for the ABOM Board review course) and “Practice Models for Obesity clinics”

Education, Innovation, Networking - all packed in these 5 short days. My brain is full.

Alone we can do so little
Together we can do so much!

A heart-felt Google review from one of our patients (thank you :-) ) :

"I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Abby’s Weight Loss Management Clinic. What makes this program truly different is that it isn’t just about losing weight—it’s about changing your relationship with food, your body, and your long-term health.
Dr. Abby takes a comprehensive approach that combines medical guidance, personalized counseling, and appropriate medications when needed. But what really stood out to me was the focus on mindset. Instead of quick fixes or restrictive dieting, the clinic helps you understand the habits, emotions, and thought patterns connected to eating and weight. That shift in perspective makes the changes feel sustainable rather than temporary.
The counseling component gives you the tools and support to stay accountable and motivated, while the medical side ensures that your plan is tailored to your body and your health needs. With that balance, the progress feels both achievable and safe.
The results go far beyond the number on the scale. As you begin to see real change, your energy improves, your confidence grows, and you start to realize you’re building habits that can help you live a longer, healthier, and more fulfilling life.
Charlene, who works alongside Dr. Abby is an absolute delight to talk with and is the most compassionate nurse that I’ve ever come in contact with at any medical facility and/or medical practice. If you’re looking for a place that treats weight management as a whole-person journey—not just a diet—Dr. Abby’s Weight Loss Management Clinic is truly life-changing."

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Novo Nordisk's weight-loss pill on Monday, giving the Danish drugmaker a leg up in the race to market a potent oral medication for shedding pounds as it looks to regain lost ground from rival Eli Lilly .
