I’m Dr. Rentea, a board certified Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine physician. I’m also the founder of The Rentea Metabolic Clinic, which serves patients in Illinois and Indiana. 

I come from a background of many years of primary care and developed a strong passion for metabolic health and weight management from my experiences with patients. We spent so much time managing issues like high blood pressure and diabetes, that we never got to address the root causes such as insulin resistance, weight gain, and stress management. 

Having gone through my own weight loss struggle, I know that obesity cannot be solved with one simple intervention. It is a chronic, lifelong condition. That’s why I want this podcast to provide you with the accurate medical information you need to manage this condition through conversations with specialists who are clinically practicing every single day.

So if you’re ready to get educated on this, decrease shame, and normalize obesity as a medical problem like anything else, I can’t wait to sit down with you every week and talk solutions.

Thanks for tuning in.
