Metabolic Weight Management

Obesity is an epidemic. Today 2/3 of adults are obese; the condition is currently considered to be at epidemic levels in the United States and many other countries around the world. Obesity is a complex disease involving an excessive amount of body fat which increases the risk of developing heart disease, cancer, diabetes, chronic pain, among others.
Losing weight is not an easy task. It is not calories in and calories out. When looking for a weight loss program we have to take into account underlying medical issues such as PCOS, hormonal imbalances, and insulin resistance.
Dr. Frances Romero will design a program according to your needs and your lifestyle. Research has shown over and over that one diet does not fit all. Not everyone will be successful following the same meal plans. As your partner in health, Dr. Romero will match what program is best for you.
If you already have a Primary Care Physician that you love and are only interested in participating in Shine DPC's Metabolic Management Program please contact us for more information.

Bioidentical Hormone Therapy
Hormones regulate most of the human body's complex systems. These hormones allow the body to respond to stressors and perform vital tasks adequately. Hormones are chemicals that regulate our body system throughout our lifetime. They cause physical, emotional, and psychological problems when they're out of balance.
Stress, unhealthy diet choices, sedentary lifestyle, and chronic diseases exacerbate hormonal issues. These disruptions in hormonal balance can lead to insomnia, anxiety, depression, digestive problems, weight gain, and more. The word bioidentical refers to chemically identical hormones to those produced by your own body. Dr. Romero evaluates your hormones by using blood and saliva tests. Then, if needed, she prescribes custom-compounded bioidentical hormones and/or other types of FDA-approved bioidentical hormones - such as transdermal patches - to treat common hormonal problems like menopausal symptoms and premenstrual syndrome.
At Shine Direct Primary Care, Dr. Romero specializes in helping you feel your best by restoring balance and improving your quality of life.
