Paul Miranda, MD
Board-certified in Family Medicine, with more than 20 years of clinical experience — including years in emergency medicine — and nearly a decade dedicated to obesity medicine. Summit is his independent practice: every application, every plan, every adjustment goes through him.
Everyone has a story on their health journey. Most of us were never guided.
I’ve lived it. As a kid I was buying husky-size jeans at the JC Penney counter — I’ve carried the weight, and the frustration of doing everything “right” and still not seeing it move. That’s not a willpower problem. It’s a biology problem, and it deserves a real clinical answer, not a lecture.
For nearly a decade I’ve dedicated my practice to obesity medicine and the full metabolic hormone axis — thyroid, cortisol, insulin sensitivity, sex hormones — because treating weight without treating its underlying drivers is incomplete medicine. My approach is realistic and down-to-earth: meet you where you are, explain what’s actually happening in your body, and guide you the way most of us never were.

No queue. No chatbot. No hand-off.
Big telehealth brands route you through intake bots and a rotating cast of prescribers. Summit is deliberately the opposite: one doctor who knows your case, reachable directly, accountable for your outcome.
Continuity
The same physician from application through taper — decisions are made by someone who knows your history.
Access
Direct messaging with Dr. Miranda, not a support queue. Questions get a physician’s answer.
Honesty
Flat pricing, medication at cost, no insurance games — and a plan designed to end, not renew.
One physician, start to finish.
Apply in about five minutes — you’ll hear back from a doctor, not a form.
