I practice medicine the way I do because I have never found the other way to be true.
You are not a BMI. You are not a lab value or a medication list. You are a person with a history — how you were raised, what you were fed and what food meant in your house, what happened to you along the way, who you are living with now, how you sleep, what you are carrying. All that lives in your body. It shows up in your weight, your hormones, your blood pressure, your energy, your mood.
So, when you sit down with me, I am going to ask about your life, not just your numbers. Not because I am being nosy, but because I cannot help you with the numbers if I do not understand the life.
What I have found is that people tell me things. Often things they have not told a doctor before — that food is the only thing that reliably makes the day better. That the drinking has crept up. That home is not a good place right now. They tell me because I am not going to flinch and I am not going to judge them, and because after this many years I know how common those things are, and how much they matter to what we are trying to fix.
None of that means we ignore the medicine. I will check your thyroid, run your labs, prescribe a GLP-1 if it is right for you, adjust your hormones. I am board certified and I take the science seriously. But medication works better when we have been honest about what is actually going on.
You get me — not a rotating staff, not a fifteen-minute slot with someone reading your chart for the first time. One doctor who knows your story. Learn more about me here!

Obesity is a chronic disease with hormonal, genetic, and behavioral roots - not a failure of willpower. GLP-1 medications, metabolic evaluation, and a plan built around your actual life.

The weight that arrived at 45 and will not leave. The sleep that broke. The brain fog nobody warned you about. Perimenopause and menopause deserve real evaluation and real treatment, not “this is just aging.”

Stress, trauma, difficult relationships, drinking, sleep, anxiety. These are not separate from your metabolic health — they are your metabolic health. We will talk about them because they are relevant.

I am Jeff Blixt, a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine in Colorado Springs. Osteopathic training taught me to treat the whole person, and I have never practiced any other way.
I am board certified in Addiction Medicine, and a member of the Obesity Medicine Association, The Menopause Society, and the American Society of Addiction Medicine.
That addiction training shapes how I practice metabolic and hormone medicine more than you would expect. It is where I learned that shame is the biggest obstacle to change, and that people get better when someone finally takes their whole story seriously.
I have been in practice here in Colorado Springs since 2000. Emily has run my front office for over twenty years and will be the voice greeting you on the phone.
