🎉 We’re incredibly proud to share some exciting news!

Our Clinical Supervisor and Physician Associate, Joseph Zucchi, PA-C, MPAS, has been named one of America’s Top PAs for 2026 by POCN!

This national, peer-nominated recognition honors Physician Associates who are making a meaningful impact through patient care, leadership, education, and contributions to their field.

Joe has been an integral part of Transition since the beginning, helping build our comprehensive obesity medicine program and guiding thousands of patients toward better health. Since 2019, our patients have collectively lost more than 60,000 pounds, while our program has continued to grow in its ability to provide evidence-based, compassionate obesity care.

Beyond the office, Joe has become a national speaker, educator, advocate, and voice in obesity medicine, working to improve access to treatment, educate healthcare professionals, and advance the way obesity is understood and treated.

We couldn’t be more proud to see his work recognized during National PA Week.

Please join us in congratulating Joe on this well-deserved honor! 👏💙

Behind many of your weekly check-ins at Transition is a physician assistant.

It is National PA Week, and we want to say thank you to the PAs on our team. They review your labs, follow your body composition week to week, adjust your plan when progress stalls, and help decide whether a prescription weight loss medication is right for you.

That kind of consistent, hands-on medical care is what makes a doctor supervised program different from going it alone.

There’s a lot of information online about obesity and weight-loss medications, and it can be hard to know what is accurate.

Transition Medical Weight Loss Clinical Supervisor and Physician Associate Joe Zucchi, PA-C, MPAS recently created a free educational website called Obesity Medicine Visuals to make this information easier to understand.

The site includes:
- Medication guides for Wegovy, Zepbound, Foundayo, and more
- Patient-friendly information about obesity and weight management
- Visuals explaining how weight-loss medications work
- Cost and insurance resources
- Health calculators and tools
- Updates on new and upcoming obesity treatments

Some sections are more geared toward healthcare professionals, but there are plenty of helpful resources for patients too.

🌐 https://www.obesitymedicinevisuals.com

The site brings together educational content Joe has developed through patient care, conference presentations, podcasts, and obesity medicine education.

As always, the website is for education and does not replace personalized medical advice.

Feel free to explore and use it as another trusted resource to better understand obesity treatment and the science behind weight management.

Pink ribbons are everywhere this month. One risk factor that rarely makes the poster? Weight.

After menopause, excess body fat is linked to a higher risk of breast cancer, largely because fat tissue becomes the body's main source of estrogen. That makes a healthy weight one of the few breast cancer risk factors you can actually influence.

Two things to do this October: schedule your mammogram, and talk with a medical provider about a weight loss plan built around your body and your health history.

Patient Support Group Tomorrow!

We are excited to bring back our Transition Patient Support Group on Tuesday, September 29 at 6:00 PM.

Michelle will be hosting the evening. As both a social worker and a Transition patient who has lost 100 pounds herself, she brings a unique perspective on the challenges, mindset, habits, and support that can make such a difference along the way.

This group is open to both current patients who are actively losing weight and maintenance patients who want to stay connected and reinforce the habits that help them succeed.

Come connect with others, share ideas, talk through real-life challenges, build accountability, and leave feeling encouraged and recharged as we head into fall.

RSVP is appreciated so we can plan ahead, but it is not required. Walk-ins are always welcome.

September is National Childhood Obesity Awareness Month, a reminder that the habits we model at home matter for the whole family.

When parents prioritize their own health, kids notice. Medical weight loss is not just about how you look. It is about building a healthier home for everyone in it.

Medication is only part of the plan. Nutrition is the other half.

Every patient at Transition Medical Weight Loss works with a registered dietitian to build an eating plan that fits your life, your preferences, and your goals. It is not a generic meal plan. It is personalized guidance from someone trained to help you succeed long term.

Real patients. Real progress. Real support along the way.

Every plan at Transition Medical Weight Loss starts with a conversation about your goals, your health history, and what has or has not worked for you before. From there, our medical team builds something built for you, not a one size fits all program.
