Today, a majority of Americans are overweight. Many of these people are dangerously obese. An overabundance of body fat has been linked to many of the medical problems we experience in our life. The genetics that control our body fat stores, metabolism and eating habits we inherit from the days of Primitive Man.
Have you ever wondered what it was like to have a complete and thorough physical and metabolic examination to check the current state of your health? Most likely many doctors you have visited in the past spent little time with you in person evaluating your overall health and medical problems. At Dr. B's office we are different!
Most people who try to lose weight go on a "diet". This normally means that they reduce their food intake or change the types of foods they eat. People believe that by doing so they can lose all the weight they want and keep it off. And judging by the hundreds of diets to choose from in books, magazines and on the Web - along with the multitude of diet products promising miraculous results - it should be simple to lose weight, right?
Most people gain weight as they get older. There are many reasons they do so. We are genetically designed to eat as much food as we can as quickly as we can. This comes from our survival genes that are built into our chromosomes.
Unfortunately, these genes that were once life saving are now incompatible in our modern society with the limitless quantities of high fat food, high carbohydrate and calorically dense processed food that we can't seem to stop eating!Most people also choose to eat larger quantities of the wrong foods when they are stressed by personal, monetary, family, marital or health problems.

Dr Besen and his staff (comprised of his nutrition savvy wife Marla and his dynamic assistant Edith) are the warmest people I have ever encountered in a medical office.
As a weight loss doctor, he is the best...never judgemental & always there to help you figure out the positive angles to achieve your goals.
He is so much more though than a weight loss physician. I have been going to him for 4 years. I've lost 30 lbs & with his guidance have kept it off. But during those 4 years,he has treated me for sinus infection, given me nutritional advice on situations such as retina traction

If you are serious about losing weight and are seeking individualized treatment in a clinical setting with a licensed health care professional then I highly recommend Dr. Robert Besen of the Doctor B Clinic in Aventura, FL. Dr. Besen has additional expertise in helping people with binge eating disorders as well as depression eating patterns. There’s no denying that losing weight is tough, and keeping it off is even harder. Having entered menopause I found how easy it was to gain weight and how hard it was to lose weight. It was a real challenge, so much so that I convinced myself that there wasn
