OMA Member Story: Jennifer Ng
This ignited her passion for obesity medicine and created the path for a new chapter in her medical career. One of the most pressing challenges she encountered was time: traditional office visits weren’t long enough to address the multifaceted nature of obesity. Ng recognized the potential of virtual group visits. The idea was first sparked by a colleague’s remark about the absence of group visits in medical weight loss. However, it was a patient’s longing for the sense of community they once found in a popular community-based weight loss program that solidified her vision. When she proposed a virtual weight management program, the response was overwhelmingly positive. Ng saw someone like herself successfully conducting group visits every day. Ng fine-tune her group visits. Ng faced significant challenges in adapting group visits to the unique realities of her practice and organization. Since launching her virtual group weight management program, the impact has been profound. Patients appreciate the accountability, community, and interactive nature of the visits.
