About
Dr. Dina Peralta-Reich is a dual board-certified physician in Obesity Medicine and Pediatrics, and the founder of New York Weight Wellness Medicine — a boutique practice on the Upper East Side dedicated to transformative, root-cause care. With over two decades of clinical experience, Dr. Dina goes far beyond the scale. Her approach addresses the full picture of metabolic health: hormonal balance, insulin resistance, body composition, emotional eating, and the psychological relationship with food. She specializes in weight wellness across the lifespan — from adolescents to women navigating perimenopause, postpartum, PCOS, and lipedema. A published researcher and former Director of Pediatric Hospitalist Medicine at Lenox Hill Hospital (Northwell Health), Dr. Dina has also led medical missions in Panama focused on women's health. She was featured in Netflix's Balance Series and is currently completing a wellness book, due in 2026. Her consultations are comprehensive, bespoke, and unhurried — designed for patients who are ready to understand their body and reclaim their health for good. She sees patients in-person and online, and is available in English and Spanish.
