“For years, I treated people in the emergency department for weight related conditions. Now I treat the underlying problem and hopefully prevent our patients from ever needing to go there.”
- Dr. Conrad Lai, Founder, Jumpstart Medicine
At Jumpstart Medicine, we take your motivation and our support and successfully guide you toward a happier, healthier life.
In 2007, Dr. Conrad Lai, a Stanford University-trained emergency medicine physician founded Jumpstart Medicine. Since that time, we have helped thousands of individuals regain control of their weight, diet, and health.
Contrary to many weight loss strategies, our approach is neither short term nor faddish. Instead, we offer a comprehensive physician-supervised approach that empowers individuals with the skills, education, and support they need to live a healthier and more fulfilling life. Our patients not only lose weight and keep it off. They frequently are able to improve health risks such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, elevated cholesterol, sleep apnea, heart disease, and metabolic syndrome. Many are able to cease taking medications they’d been dependent on for years. Others describe less knee and back pain, lower rates of depression, and a marked improvement in their sense of self-esteem and quality of life. At Jumpstart, people who once thought they had lost control of their health and life, take both back.
Available to individuals and corporations, we expect our program and staff members to be positive “agents of change” in the lives of those who seek our help. We’re here to make your life better.
