Dr. Steven Sisskind is Healthier Talk’s resident expert on weight loss and also the Chief Medical Officer and co-founder at RealDose Nutrition.

As a practicing physician, “Dr. Steve” has cared for general surgery and general medicine patients. In addition to his work as a medical doctor, he worked for the U.S. Congress’ Office of Technology Assessment and at the U.S. Congress, performing research on health care, medical technology and drug-related issues.

Dr. Steve received his medical degree from Baylor College of Medicine, his bachelor’s degree from Stanford University and his master’s degree in manufacturing engineering from UCLA. So you could say he is a doctor with an engineering mind.

Dr. Steve is focused on creating evidence-based nutritional supplements that actually do what they claim. The problem currently on the top of his mind is figuring out the right combination of natural supplements, optimal diet and behavioral changes that will help people get a handle on their weight and health issues.

He is the proud father of 4 children all under the age of 10, and is active in the New York City community. He loves Frank Sinatra, and if you get him in a really good mood, he just might sing you a tune.
