About
Bio
After practicing as a Board Certified OB/GYN for 18 years, I did further training in Preventive Medicine at the University of Kentucky. Realizing the importance of weight management in the prevention of many chronic diseases, I now focus on weight loss, age management and hormone therapy.
Dr. Scott's Center for Weight, Hormone & Age Management in the Charlotte, NC area is a premier clinic serving clients from NC, SC, Virginia, Georgia and more! I come to south Charlotte wanting to improve the quality of people’s lives through physician-guided weight loss management and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Having experienced first-hand the effects of hormone imbalance, I am committed to listening to YOUR concerns with patience and understanding. I will strive to find exactly the right therapy that best addresses your unique health issues.
