Bay Area’s Largest Medical Weight Loss Program Opens First Storefront Clinic in Burlingame

San Francisco, CA - November 01, 2013 - JumpstartMD, the medical weight management program most recommended by Bay Area doctors, announces the grand opening of its first storefront clinic in downtown Burlingame.

Dr. Conrad Lai and Dr. Sean Bourke first met at Stanford as emergency room doctors. They spent years treating related complications of excess weight, but were frustrated that they could not help patients address the underlying problem. Determined to create a better option, they formed JumpstartMD in 2007 to provide fast, healthy and sustainable weight loss.

“Enthusiastic patients and referring physicians have fueled the rapid word-of-mouth driven growth of JumpstartMD. We are now the largest medical clinic dedicated to weight management in the San Francisco Bay Area,” said Dr. Sean Bourke, co-founder of JumpstartMD. “Our first Burlingame clinic opened 2011. Our practice has been so well-received by Burlingame residents, that we now have established a strong foothold in the community. We are very excited about the added visibility of a street level clinic as it will create greater awareness about our proven, non-surgical weight loss solution.”

To celebrate this meaningful move, the company will be hosting a ribbon cutting ceremony with Burlingame Mayor Ann Keighran followed by an open house on November 2nd at 12:30 pm at the new clinic located at 350 Lorton in Burlingame. Everyone is welcome.

 The company’s unbending commitment to long-term, sustainable lifestyle change with a focus on nutrition education and the incorporation of real, whole foods is an out-of-the-box methodology that is garnering real results. With three additional clinics planned to open in 2014, JumpstartMD’s health-focused mission is gaining significant momentum.
