Got questions for
Carmen Gota, MD?
I am Dr. Carmen E. Gota, MD, an experienced internal medicine, rheumatology, and weight-loss specialist and the founder of SlimWell. I am double board-certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine and Rheumatology and care for adults aged 18 and older.
I was born in Transylvania, Romania. I completed my medical training at Iuliu Hatieganu University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Cluj-Napoca, România, where I graduated as a valedictorian. I did an Internal Medicine Residency, then joined the University staff as an Assistant Professor of Internal Medicine. In that capacity, I taught medical students the discipline of semiology and how to recognize the signs and symptoms of diseases.
I completed my US Internal Medicine residency at Lenox Hill Hospital on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City. There, I learned how different the American healthcare system was from the one I just left. I also noticed that being curious, kind, and compassionate matters the same no matter where you practice medicine.
Throughout all these years of practice, I struggled with the frustrations related to the limits of our care. I wondered in many instances about the wisdom of treating conditions without treating the root cause – the disease of obesity. So, I decided that I needed to learn more about Obesity Medicine.
I always believed and tried to help my patients comprehensively. As obesity is the root cause of many conditions, I realized that managing weight could be the key to more effective comprehensive health care for a lot of my patients.
SlimWell is the product of this vision for a healthcare model that delivers comprehensive integrative care by targeting weight loss with the goal of major downstream health benefits.
On a personal level, I believe my relationship with my patients is a partnership where we work together towards improved health.
