About Us


Seun Sowemimo, MD, FACS, FASMBS

“I needed to find a way out or I would have lost my mobility and surely shortened my life. Dr. Seun gave me the way out and saved my life. My cholesterol is down 90 points, BP is down, blood sugar is down, resting heart rate is down while my energy is way up. I’m so grateful that I made this choice. I recommend it to anyone feeling imprisoned by their weight and facing weight related health issues.”
