Robert Ziltzer, MD, FACP is a Board Certified Obesity Medicine Specialist at Scottsdale Weight Loss Center in Arizona. He is also Board Certified in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics, as well as a serial marathon runner. Dr. Ziltzer’s passion for serving as a medical weight loss doctor is born, in part, from his experience in treating people who suffered from obesity-related illnesses. He has also worked with athletes at elite levels to reach their weight goals for optimal performance.
Dr. Ziltzer earned his medical degree from the Albany Medical College of Union University and completed his combined Internal Medicine and Pediatrics medical residency at Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center and Phoenix Children’s Hospital. He then established a medical practice in Scottsdale, Arizona in 1991, where he treated many patients suffering from diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. While treating these patients, Dr. Ziltzer observed the impact that weight loss had on these medical conditions, as well on the confidence and self esteem of his patients.
In 1995, Dr. Ziltzer committed to specializing in medical weight loss. He is board certified by The American Board of Bariatric Medicine and a member of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians and the Obesity Society. Dr. Ziltzer has also been listed as one of Phoenix Magazine’s Top Docs in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 and as one of Scottsdale 101 magazine’s Top 101 Doctors.
