Hi! I'm Dr. Marilyn Galindo

BOARD-CERTIFIED PHYSICIAN SPECIALIZING IN INTERNAL MEDICINE AND OBESITY MEDICINE AND FOUNDER OF LEON SPRINGS OBESITY MEDICINE

I believe in treating every patient with dignity and respect, recognizing that each person's journey is unique.

I built Leon Springs Obesity Medicine with a vision of providing compassionate and patient-centered care to individuals navigating the challenges of obesity. I'm deeply committed to advocating for patients with obesity and helping them overcome the stigma and discrimination they often face. 

At Leon Springs Obesity Medicine, we foster a welcoming and supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to achieve your health goals.
