Lisa Turner , MD, Obesity Medicine Specialist

Dr. Lisa Turner is an obesity medicine specialist based in Orlando with a clinical focus on Weight Loss, metabolic health, and long-term weight maintenance. She works with adults who have struggled with weight for years, who have medical conditions linked to excess weight, or who simply want a more structured, medically supervised approach rather than repeated short-term diets.

In her practice, Dr. Turner begins with a detailed review of weight history, medical conditions, medications, sleep patterns, stress levels, and daily routines. When appropriate, she may recommend lab tests to assess metabolic health before building a plan. Using this information, she develops a step-by-step program that can include targeted nutrition counseling, physical activity coaching, and Weight Loss medications when indicated, always tailored to the patient’s health status and daily life.

Patients appreciate Dr. Turner’s realistic, non-judgmental approach. She explains why weight can be difficult to manage, how metabolism and hormones play a role, and what kind of progress is reasonable to expect. She provides concrete weekly and monthly goals, guidance on how to handle plateaus or setbacks, and clear instructions on when to schedule follow-up visits to adjust the plan.

By combining evidence-based Weight Loss therapies with practical lifestyle guidance and consistent follow-up, Dr. Turner helps patients move toward healthier weight, improved metabolic markers, and a more sustainable relationship with food, movement, and long-term weight maintenance.
