Dr. Megha Teeka, MD, DABOM
I strive for evidence-based medicine and shared decision-making. My goal is to work collaboratively with my patients to help them achieve good quality of physical and mental health. My proficiency in English, Kannada and Telugu enables me to connect with a wider spectrum of patients.
Obesity Medicine is a passion of mine. During my certification, I delved deeply into its science and pathophysiology, understanding its intertwining elements of lifestyle, hormones, genetics, and cognitive factors. I’ve personally struggled with this and have a unique understanding. I love helping people improve their overall health, managing conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and other health problems through weight loss. I customize solutions involving nutrition, physical activity, and medications when needed. You’re welcome to keep your primary doctor and see me specifically for your weight concerns.
Outside of work, I cherish spending time with my family—my husband and three little munchkins. I indulge in activities like reading, baking, traveling, and, like everyone else, enjoy hanging out with friends and shopping.
