Bio/Research
Yoni Freedhoff, MD, is an assistant professor of family medicine at the
University of Ottawa, where he’s the founder and medical director of the Bariatric
Medical Institute—dedicated to non-surgical weight management since 2004. Deemed
a “nutritional watchdog” by the CMAJ, Dr. Freedhoff sounds off daily on his award-winning
blog, Weighty Matters, and is also easily reachable on Twitter. A sought after
international lecturer, Dr. Freedhoff’s ability to distill complex information
into media friendly soundbites along with his outspoken nature have also made
him an invaluable source to Canada’s health reporters and he’s become a fixture
in the media on matters pertaining to nutrition, obesity, and health related public
policy. Dr. Freedhoff’s latest book Why Diets Fail and How to Make Yours Work
will be published by Simon & Schuster’s Free Press in May 2013.
