Meet Dr. Yusupova
Dr. Dina Yusupova, MD, is a double board-certified physician in Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine and the founder of Balanced by MD. She believes patients deserve more than a prescription: they deserve personalized care that considers their unique biology, lifestyle, stressors, and daily habits to create sustainable changes that support lifelong health.
With years of experience in hospital and critical care medicine, Dr. Yusupova treated patients facing devastating, life-threatening disease and witnessed firsthand the profound impact of chronic illness, including how often obesity-related conditions can escalate into medical emergencies. These experiences inspired her mission to identify health concerns sooner, address underlying causes, and empower patients to take control of their health before complications arise.
​
Today, she brings this depth of clinical expertise to proactive, preventive care focused on metabolic health, medical weight management, hormone optimization, and long-term disease prevention.
Her philosophy is simple: meaningful change begins with understanding you as a whole person. Rather than relying on quick fixes or the number on the scale alone, Dr. Yusupova takes the time to identify what’s holding each patient back and builds a practical, evidence-based plan that may include nutrition and lifestyle support, hormone therapy when appropriate, and medical weight management, including GLP-1 and GIP therapies.
Outside the practice, you’ll find her on a morning jog, spending time with family, playing soccer, or reaching for a crisp green apple, her all-time favorite snack.
