Sejal Desai, MD

A healthy lifestyle is the most potent medicine.

Welcome to Tula Medical Weight Loss & Wellness!

I’m Dr. Sejal Desai, a double board-certified physician in Obesity Medicine and Family Medicine, practicing since 2004. I know that lasting weight loss isn’t about simply eating less and moving more — it’s about uncovering and addressing the ROOT CAUSES of weight gain for sustainable, lifelong results.

I established my practice so I could work individually with each patient — dedicating the time and attention needed to truly understand your unique health story. I take a holistic approach to care, considering the medical, social, and emotional factors that impact your health. By combining evidence-based medicine with personalized weight management, I’m here to support and guide you on your path to lasting weight loss success.

As someone who has personally experienced weight loss, I understand the challenges you face. My goal is to provide you with the tools, support, and medical expertise you need to transform your health and your life.

Education & Training:

“I truly believe that every new day is another chance to get stronger, to eat better, to live healthier, and to be the best version of you.”
