Obesity Care, Redefined
At Valley Obesity Medicine & Diabetes, we believe obesity care should be about more than quick visits, prescriptions, and rushed decisions.
If you are looking obesity care – or an obesity doctor / obesity specialist / obesity clinic, you’re in the right place!
Our mission is to give you everything you need to just just embark on – but to succeed with your obesity treatment journey.
The resources below will help point you in the right direction as you decide how to take your first step.
We sincerely hope that you will trust Dr. Li and Valley Obesity Medicine and Diabetes to help you and provide you obesity care along the way!
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
– Lao Tzu
Obesity is not a simple matter of diet or willpower. It’s a complex, long-term health condition caused by changes in the way the body regulates energy and stores fat.
Just as high blood pressure can quietly increase health risks until it’s managed, obesity becomes dangerous when it leads to complications like heart disease, diabetes, cancer, sleep apnea, arthritis, and even depression.
Yet here’s the reality: while more than 80% of people with high blood pressure receive treatment, fewer than 5% of people with obesity ever get medical care for it. For children, that number is even lower—despite the fact that early intervention can completely change the course of their future health.
At VOMD, we’re committed to changing that. We take the time to understand the “why” behind each patient’s weight gain, because no two people’s journeys are the same. With the latest tools—including safe, effective medications, personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies, and ongoing behavioral support—we create individualized care plans designed for long-term success.
Our goal isn’t just weight loss. It’s about helping you feel better, restore energy, reduce health risks, and rediscover the confidence that comes from living a healthier life.

More than 40% of Americans are living with obesity
– a condition that fuels over 100 chronic diseases and places a heavy burden on individuals, families, and communities. Behind that statistic are millions of people who want to feel better, live longer, and reclaim their health but often find themselves stuck in a cycle of short-term fixes and long-term frustration.
At Valley Obesity Medicine & Diabetes, we believe that change happens when medical science and compassionate care come together.
