Beth Polk Headshot

I am board certified in Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine (LM) and am currently practicing in the FM Residency program where I have a LM consultation practice and oversee the LM Residency Curriculum to train our residents to use LM as the foundation of their practice. We have a registry of the patients I have seen and am following for LM to track outcomes related to metrics such as A1C, BP, and weight loss as well as patient centered data around behavior change. The majority of our practice is medically underserved and economically challenged. We partner with Community Health Outreach to help identify their SDoH needs and provide support as they work towards their health goals.
