APP Colleagues,
On Monday December 2,
2024 we welcomed Dr. Elizabeth Honigsberg with a talk on Obesity Medicine.
Dr. Elizabeth Honigsberg is a
Staff Physician at the Dartmouth Health Weight Center and Assistant Professor
of Medicine at the Geisel School of Medicine. She is a Board-Certified
surgeon with specialty training in bariatric surgery and a Diplomate of the American
Board of Obesity Medicine. She will be completing her Master’s in Public
Health at Tufts School of Medicine this year.
Dr. Honigsberg prioritizes
compassionate, patient-centered, and comprehensive obesity care.
Additionally, she strives to fight weight bias throughout the healthcare
system. Her current academic interests include the real-world impact of
GLP 1 RA therapy on peri-procedural protocols, the relationship between GLP 1
RA therapy and muscle mass changes, and defining the “food noise”
phenomenon. Ultimately, she hopes to expand obesity education to all
levels of medical training.
