Abramson, MD, Chair of the Department of Medicine, and Sondra Zabar, MD, (@SandyZabarMD) Director of DGIMCI, the evening honored the division's transformative impact over the past two decades.
A special highlight was the milestone gift from Judith & Stanley Zabar, establishing the Judith and Stanley Zabar Associate Professorship to advance research in general internal medicine.

These findings highlight the complexities of managing obesity in high-risk populations and the limitations of relying solely on technology-assisted health coaching in primary care settings.
We need to improve equitable obesity care. Please share our recommendations on how to so. @ACPIMPhysicians @SocietyGIM @NYUGSOM_DGIMCI

I learn a lot from doing media interviews— they allow me to gain a wider perspective about my patients.
Here is a recent one from @katiecouric media’s Body and Soul Newsletter answering readers’ questions about GLP-1 RA medications.

It was so fun to work with @VickyNguyenTV @mayafellerRD , Dr. Rekha Kumar and Jessica Herrzberg and to be interviewed for this story.

It was an honor to speak about obesity care at AHIP. Decisions about coverage for GLP-1RAs need to be grounded in evidence, equity, and ethics.

Should we believe or dismiss the people who can’t stop talking about the benefits they’ve enjoyed from turning down the volume on #FoodNoise? Who’s #gaslighting who?
