Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

A Partner for my Weight Management Journey
Amy understands that many people who come to her are not dealing with obesity for the first time. The difference Amy provides is that she is a partner who works WITH you to find solutions that work for you as an individual - she is not an impersonal app or commercial weight-loss fad. She's knowledgeable and has the tools and resources that are only available through a medical program. She is warm and encouraging, always looking for "non-scale" goals to celebrate. Her program includes a combination of in-person and virtual or phone visits, and in either case she is professional and accommodating. I've been working with her for 16 months, during which I lost 20% of my body weight, while also having both knees replaced! I felt great comfort in knowing that I had a certified medical professional caring for my body's health during this time. She helped me manage medications and kept an eye on my bloodwork through weight loss and two surgeries. I can't recommend her enough!

Simply the best
Amy really took the time to explain to me why I was gaining weight. Since I have been seeing her I have lost more than 20% of my presenting weight. She was so sweet and kind I am glad I found her.

Fantastic
I couldn't be happier with my results with Amy. She took the time to listen to my concerns and showed me how to be responsible for my health and weight. I now am healthier (and lighter) than I have been in over 20 years. I cannot thank you enough!

Great Experience
Amy Paulus is a one-of-a-kind practitioner. I've tried many other avenues to lose weight in the past but was never successful. Amy provided me a new take on losing weight with a multitude of options. I truly felt like she listened to my concerns, understood my difficulties and helped provide a realistic plan. Besides her extraordinary empathetic manner, she is very knowledgeable in her field and specialty. I'm glad I found her!

I cannot say enough about Amy Paulus. I recently had an appointment with her to discuss weight loss options and although I was hesitant to proceed with the appointment, I am sure glad that I did. Amy is a wealth of knowledge and you can tell she is very passionate about her speciality in obesity medicine. She made me feel at ease, was empathetic and helped me realize my weight issues are not all my fault. If anyone has any reservations about following through with an appointment with her…. Do not! You will not be disappointed!
