Dr Lisa Gorsuch is a board certified OBGYN who has over 30 years of clinical practice in womens’ healthcare. Several years ago she became interested in Obesity Medicine to help her patients with their weight loss struggles and in 2018 she became board certified in Obesity Medicine. Her patients had success with medications but struggled with weight maintenance. While a healthy diet is important for weight loss, a healthy lifestyle with proper exercise, sleep and stress management are imperative for success weight maintenance. In 2022 Dr Gorsuch became board certified in Lifestyle Medicine which focuses on 6 pillars of a healthy lifestyle. Dr Gorsuch has now dedicated her practice to helping and empowering patients to achieve wellness through a more holistic approach by optimizing lifestyle behavioral change. In addition to her 30 years of OBGYN practice, Dr Gorsuch is also certified by The Menopause Society to help women with the menopause transition both with and without hormone replacement therapy.
Our story
While Dr Gorsuch has had a successful and rewarding career in obstetrics and gynecology, she has become frustrated with the current healthcare system that focuses on pharmaceuticals and surgery first as opposed to addressing the root cause of illness, which in 80% of cases is lifestyle related. She herself has been plant based for over 5 years and has personally experienced how restorative a health diet and active lifestyle can be for health and wellness.
