Obesity Medicine for Children, Teens, and Adults

Dr. Dyan Hes is a leading advocate for pediatric, adolescent, and adult nutrition and weight management, with a distinguished career dedicated to combating obesity across all age groups.  She served as a Director of the American Board of Obesity Medicine for eight years and has been a pioneer in the use of weight-loss medications for children and adolescents. Her clinical research played a pivotal role in the approval of these treatments in the United States. Dr. Hes has mentored numerous physicians-in-training on the use of GLP-1 agonists and other pharmacologic interventions for pediatric obesity. A globally recognized speaker, she frequently presents on topics related to obesity and nutrition.

Committed to creating impactful obesity prevention programs, Dr. Hes founded and directed the Pediatric Weight Management Program at New York Methodist Hospital. She also developed the Be Fit program in collaboration with the Park Slope YMCA, offering essential support for overweight children. Her dedication to public health earned her recognition from Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz for her efforts in combating childhood obesity. In 2006, she served as an Expert Witness at the New York City Department of Health hearing that led to the ban on trans fats in restaurant food.

Beyond her clinical and research contributions, Dr. Hes is actively involved in shaping nutritional science and policy. She serves on the scientific advisory boards of the Grain Foods Foundation and Ritual Vitamins, and she is a respected speaker for Abbott Nutrition.
