Dr. Tami Buss Cassis Achieves Obesity Medicine Board Certification
We are thrilled to announce that Dr. Tami Buss Cassis has achieved certification in Obesity Medicine by the American Board of Obesity Medicine (ABOM). She joins a distinguished group of more than 9,800 certified physicians across the United States and Canada, dedicated to providing expert, evidence-based obesity care.
This certification reflects Dr. Cassis’s commitment to advancing her medical knowledge and offering comprehensive care to her patients. With over 1,800 physicians passing the October 2024 board exam—the largest number certified in a single exam administration—Dr. Cassis is now part of a growing network of professionals committed to treating obesity as a complex medical condition.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), obesity affects more than 40% of U.S. adults, contributing to serious health conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Despite its prevalence, many physicians receive limited formal training in obesity management during medical school. Certification by ABOM ensures that physicians like Dr. Cassis have advanced knowledge in weight management, nutrition, and the latest treatment options.
As the field of obesity medicine continues to grow, Dr. Cassis’s achievement underscores her dedication to staying at the forefront of patient care. We congratulate her on this significant milestone and look forward to the positive impact it will have on the lives of her patients.
