“I am no longer pre-diabetic…”
I have lost between 35-40 pounds. I am no longer pre-diabetic, and my cholesterol is around 200. My cholesterol medicine was cut in half. She worked with my E2M meal plan requirements, giving me guidance on how to supplement the program to meet my health needs. For example, the need to add more protein and fiber to my overall diet. Dr. Mittal is extremely knowledgeable in this area. She is constantly on top of new innovations and research.

How is culinary medicine practiced?
In my treatment plans with my patients, I take a personalized approach to help them create a sustainable eating style that honors their cultural backgrounds and their likes and dislikes. We have a focus of finding ways to become more PLANT-FORWARD, based on numerous studies showing this type of eating pattern can help to reduce disease burden, regardless of whether you choose to consume animal proteins or not.
It also allows for a focus on including more nutrient and fiber-dense foods that help fill up the plate, rather than having a focus purely on restriction of certain higher calorie processed foods. People also experience improvements in hunger and satiety, which helps them lose excess body fat and improve their metabolic and gut health.
In working with patients, I help them find ways to be more intuitive in their eating patterns and help them be less restrictive.
We focus on teaching new ways to enjoy different flavor profiles, substitute healthful ingredients in daily cooking, and share ways for prepping and cooking at home that can help you cut down on eating out and not spend the whole day in the kitchen! We know we all have very busy lives!
By empowering our patients with tools and techniques, they not only improve their own health, but that of their whole family. We hear this often!
The goal is to help patients enjoy an eating pattern that not only feels sustainable, but also helps them lose weight and improve health conditions and risk factors like high blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol and inflammatory markers.
Whether you are a cooking pro or just a beginner, it is very important to meet you where you are and help you with that connection between your food and your health!
What is Culinary Medicine &
How Can It Improve Your Health?
When we eat or cook for ourselves and others, it is an expression of love and self-care for our bodies and minds. Everyday, our food has the chance to nourish us, feed our families and fuel our bodies and us to achieve our passions and goals in life!
Many times, during weight loss attempts or with health concerns like diabetes, people feel they have to give up all the foods they enjoy. These foods could have cultural or even emotional meaning to a person or even be tied to their favorite memories with loved ones. It is not a sustainable pattern if a diet is overly restrictive. We empower our patients with tools to lose weight, improve health and still enjoy foods that they love. We do this through practicing culinary medicine. We help our patients embrace more cooking at home for long-term health and focus on making realistic changes, improving dietary patterns of the whole family.
We help our patients with eating more fresh, whole foods and reduce ultra-processed foods while still enjoying the occasional treat!
Our goal is to help you nourish your body with nutrient-dense foods that not only contain the micronutrients and macronutrients you need for optimal long-term health, but also reduce processed foods that lack nutrients you need and are heavy in calorie-density with unhealthy fats and added sugars.
Learn more about the how food and diet approach can be tailored to chronic medical concerns.
Despite the importance of nutrition, the link between the foods we eat and chronic disease has not been given the attention it deserves. I am passionate about changing that!
FAQs
Do I have to be a certain weight to be seen?
No, you do not need to be a particular weight to benefit from our services. Whether you are looking to lose a few pounds or 100 lbs, we can customize a program to optimize your health.
What can I expect during my first visit?
Your first visit is a comfortable, judgment-free conversation where Dr. Mittal takes time to truly understand your journey. We’ll do a comprehensive medical evaluation, including lab work and body composition analysis, then create a personalized plan together. Many patients tell us this is the first time they’ve felt truly heard by a physician.
How long are the visits?
In order to provide you with a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan, once you are enrolled as a member of our practice, your initial Foundation visit with Dr. Mittal will be approximately 75-90 minutes and 60 minutes for your Foundation 2 visit with Cindy, our Certified Health Coach. Your monthly visits will be approximately 45-60 minutes.
How often will I meet with Dr. Mittal?
Based on your needs, we will typically see you monthly during your weight loss phase—in-person or via telehealth. For our patients in the transition phase, we visit every other month and for patients in maintenance, we see them every 3 or 6 months, depending on their needs.
Which treatment is right for me?
After a thorough evaluation of your medical conditions and history and discussion about personal barriers to lifestyle changes, an appropriate nutrition, lifestyle, and medication treatment plan will be formulated as part of your customized plan. We work with patients to honor their viewpoint (if medication is desired or not) while working to achieve their health and weight wellness goals. We offer prescriptions for FDA-approved medications like weight loss injection in Dallas, Plano, and Frisco—this way we can provide cutting edge care for medicated weight loss.
FDA-approved medications for weight loss include:
- Phentermine products (Adipex-P, Lomaira)
- Orlistat (Xenical® or Alli®)
- Naltrexone HCI and Bupropion HCI (Contrave®)
- Phentermine/Topiramate ER (Qsymia®)
- Semaglutide injection (Wegovy®)
- Tirzepatide injection (Zepbound®)
* In addition to the above medications, we prescribe other effective, off label medications like metformin, topiramate, wellbutrin, naltrexone, based on your weight and weight-related medical conditions. We make recommendations for nutritional supplements based on your medical evaluation and needs.
Are your programs covered by insurance?
We are out-of-network with all insurance plans, which allows us to provide truly personalized care that is not limited by insurance guidelines. This includes longer visits, direct messaging access, and health coaching support. We can provide superbills for insurance submission, and our services are typically FSA/HSA eligible. We offer Reimbursify as a service to our patients to submit bills to their insurance plan seamlessly, in order to be reimbursed for out-of-network benefits.

An Intake Consultation visit is offered to anyone interested, requires no membership commitment, and allows for a more in-depth and personalized medical discussion.

- Dr. Mittal reviews your health history, prior labs (if provided), risk factors, and goals and lays out a plan for treatment options for you to customize your ongoing membership service, based on your goals and needs.
- InBody 570 body composition analysis is included
Which commitment plan (6-month or 12-month timeline) should I sign up for after my first visit with Dr. Mittal?
A general overview is provided below and should give you an idea of a timeline. Specifics can be discussed with you during your first visit to provide guidance based on your personal medical concerns and weight and health objectives. On an ongoing basis, we have discussions about your ongoing membership and follow-up needs, based on your progress.
Typically, based on studies following patients over 52 weeks (12 months), patients achieve meaningful weight loss while using medications and changing health habits over this time period. Some patients will achieve their goal earlier, some over a longer period of time, depending on their own personal situation.
Certain medications, like injectable GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound) take 2-6 months to ramp up to a full therapeutic dose. Studies show more frequent touchpoints with your care team result in better outcomes. This is why we include monthly visits, health coaching, and access to the medical team in between visits that provide you with the support, medical care, and accountability to be successful.
We have Transition and Maintenance programs to continue a plan of care after this active weight loss period, in order to ensure your ongoing success with maintenance of weight and health habits.
Will you help me manage potential side effects related to using weight loss injection GLP-1 medications like semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro/Zepbound)?
Yes! We strongly believe that you deserve to feel your best while getting treatment with injectable GLP-1 medications. During your monthly medical visits, we screen for issues you may be experiencing, share practical ways to manage side effects, and work to titrate dosing according to your weight loss and any side effects. We have resources with practical solutions to help guide you in feeling well. We are available to you in between visits to troubleshoot side effects as well.
