Access: Addressing The Obesity CrisisAs a trained physician, seeing the many types of patients in Dr. Amy Lees years of practice, she has come to realize that what she does in treating a patient with obesity is a not straightforward.

As a trained physician, seeing the many types of patients in Dr. Amy Lee’s years of practice, she has come to realize that what she does in treating a patient with obesity is a not straightforward. There is not one type of diet regimen for everyone, just as if there is not one pill that fixes all problems.

She finds herself working backwards by first, meeting someone with the condition of overweightness, followed by digging into their history on the root cause of the outcome. What needs to be recognized is the many causes, which could be genetic predisposition, environmental forces, complications from mental health, or simply taking a medication with adverse reactions of weight gain. In order for practitioners like Dr. Lee to carry out this job, they need the medical community as well as the ancillary services to recognize the complexity of what it takes to fully make an impact in this patient population. If they do not make changes and move forward, this epidemic of obesity will surely become the next pandemic. Dr. Lee’s hope in publishing Access: Addressing the Obesity Crisis is to share with her colleagues the “other side” of the practice often overlooked or under-recognized. This is an attempt to shed a little light to what they are doing as medical bariatricians and the impact they can make for their patients.

About the Authors

Dr. Amy Lee has spent most of her career, since her early days in her residency training in nutrition medicine. She is grateful that her foundation in Internal Medicine has given her a strong knowledge base in pathophysiology and disease states, while the nutrition knowledge allowed her to tie in an alternative therapy to everyday medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, chronic inflammation, and sports nutrition; just to name a few common ones. Lee is currently serving as the Chief Medical Officer at Lindora Clinic, a medically supervised weight loss program in Southern California. She is also the head of Nutrition for Nucific, providing up-to-date and evidence-based content for a line of nutrition supplement products. Her other interest (and part-time hobby) is rebuilding and reviving communities to provide low-income housing for those in need.

Every Glamorous Pup Needs Pawfum
Color: Black Noir Pawfum, Size: One Size, Color: Black Noir Pawfum, Size: One Size
As a sophisticated young lady with impeccable taste, I can confidently say that the Chewnel Noir Pawfum is a must-have for every fashionable pup. The moment I got my paws on it, I knew it was special. It’s soft, adorable, and the perfect size for carrying around the house, chewing, cuddling, and showing off during my puppy playdates. It adds just the right amount of luxury to my toy collection. Not only does it look fabulous in photos, but it also keeps me entertained for hours. My humans can’t stop laughing every time they see me strutting around with my designer “pawfum.” If you’re a puppy who loves the finer things in life, this toy deserves a spot in your collection. Five paws from Pennie Lou! Because every glamorous girl needs her signature scent.

Will probably be destroyed soon, but SUPER CUTE!
Color: Pink Purse, Size: One Size
Super cute! It will probably eventually be ripped to shreds by my pups soon because it is not as sturdy as other toys out there. It is also pretty small so not the best for large dogs destructive dogs. My lab tries to eat it and rip it but my small chihuahua plays with it and fetches it (she also looks adorable holding it her mouth!!)
