Obesity impacts 40% of the US adult population, but only about 1% of patients receive medical treatment for their disease. Form Health makes medical treatment available to everyone.
Form Health helps people lose weight in a medically-supervised environment. Our physicians look at the whole patient and develop an individual, medical approach, including medications when appropriate. All of this: virtual MD visits, interactions with Registered Dietitians, group interactions, meal tracking, and more, is delivered securely via an app on the patient's phone.

- Inform technical, product, process, hiring, and architectural decisions (including build vs buy)
