Dr. Charlie Seltzer, M.D.

Nutritionist

As the only physician in the country to be board-certified in Obesity Medicine and certified by the American College of Sports Medicine as a Clinical Exercise Specialist, Dr. Seltzer has a proven track record of helping people transform their lives for good.

After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts, Dr. Seltzer went on to study medicine at Jefferson Medical College, where he graduated as a Medical Doctor (M.D.). Dr. Seltzer worked as a Resident of Internal Medicine at Crozer Chester Medical Center, before ultimately choosing to open up his own practice.

Driven by his past personal struggles with weight and binge eating, Dr. Seltzer’s mission is to help others who want to improve their health. Unlike other weight loss physicians, Dr. Seltzer takes a 360-degree approach by evaluating and addressing all of the factors that contribute to suboptimal health, including medical problems and medications, sleep, stress, depression, food addiction, busy work schedules and social commitments.

    Instead of writing as a patient, I am writing as a professional colleague who has worked closely with Charlie for 3 years. I can honestly and openly say Charlie is in an elite class of knowledge in his field. I have, as a compounding pharmacist, served some of his patient's for years and have personally seen the success that they have had with weight loss, depression, etc. On the professional side of things, he's very fast and responsive to patient inquiries. This makes my job as a pharmacist SO much easier, knowing the line of communication is always open. There should be more doctors like Charlie!

    Dr. Charlie is hands down the best doctor I have ever seen. While his practice revolves around weight loss, fitness, and overall health, I trust his medical opinion on any topic. He cares sincerely about each of his patients. I lost more than 40lbs working with him and have kept the weight off. I continue to see him both to help maintain my weight and fitness but also to help me with any medical concerns that come up. My wife has started seeing him too and loves him. Thanks to Charlie, we're both the healthiest we've been in years, perhaps ever.

    Dr. Charlie is the best! If you want to lose weight, go to him and you surely will! His medical background and knowledge of nutrition, diet and exercise allow him to take an extremely effective and unique approach to weight loss. Dr. Charlie will determine if there are any underlying problems, such as vitamin deficiencies or hypothyroidism, that are making it more difficult for you to use weight. Dr. Charlie also takes an interactive approach by tracking you on Myfitnesspal and making himself available my email or text.

    The man is brilliant, positive and motivating!!! You don't feel like he is your doctor, you feel like he is your partner!
