GLP-1... 4-LIFE?

JVN is joined by Dr. Liz Kazarian for a candid conversation on GLP-1 medications, the future of obesity care, and JVN’s personal journey with the medication. They cover: Food tracking—helpful or harmful? How does family medicine shape patient care? Do you take GLP-1s forever? Plus - what it takes to sustain long-term health on this “miracle” medication. 

Dr. Liz Kazarian is a board-certified family medicine physician specializing in obesity medicine, with a clinical focus on women’s health, preventive care, and chronic disease management.

As part of PMA Health, Dr. Kazarian provides comprehensive, patient-centered care, with an emphasis on long-term wellness and individualized treatment plans. Her approach integrates lifestyle, behavioral, and medical strategies to support sustainable health outcomes, particularly in the treatment of obesity and related conditions. She sees patients in the Northern Virginia area and is committed to helping individuals build practical, lasting approaches to better health.
