Dr. Marissa Toussaint, MD

I've struggled with excess weight for most of my life. As I entered parenting and mid-adulthood, it became more difficult to successfully lose weight long-term. I tried many solutions, only to lose and regain the same 10 pounds over and over again. Once I realized that the weight would not magically disappear, I decided to take a different approach. My training in both Culinary and Obesity Medicine helped me understand scientifically, why my efforts fell short. Together with some key mindset shifts, I used the science to strategically change my course of action. I was able to successfully lose over 40 lbs. Now, its part of my mission to help others achieve their healthiest weight to maximize their quality of life. I want people to feel seen, heard and supported. I want my patients to unlock the healthiest version of themselves while fully loving and accepting themselves.
