Episode 189: Dr. Tro Kalayjian, Rosette Kalayjian, and Lanell Lenzkes

Dr. Tro Kalayjian is a board-certified physician in Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine. He is a founding member of the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners and has lost 150 pounds by challenging conventional medical advice. Now, he is dedicated to helping patients achieve health, prevent disease, and reduce medication dependence. He is also Dr. Brian’s co-host on the LowCarbMD Podcast.

Rosette Kalayjian is an experienced attorney and entrepreneur. She completed undergraduate schooling at Queens College followed by law school at St. John’s University. Not only does she serve as a legal advisor for Tro’s practice, but she has also personally benefited from low-carb dieting and intermittent fasting in managing migraines and for weight maintenance. In 2019, she started ROSETTE’S, a company devoted to providing low-carb baking options to the masses.

In this episode, Brian, Lanell, Tro, and Rosette talk about the Kalayjian family’s personal weight loss journey, how Dr. Tro found his way out of the traditional Western healthcare system, Dr. Brian’s exit from that same system, challenges and obstacles facing new and upcoming doctors today, how to truly help patients while having a healthier/balanced personal life, and the absolute necessity of having a good support system and community behind you.
