About Dr. Essam Rashad
Synergy Weight Loss & Primary Care isn't your average doctor's office. We're a primary care practice built for patients who are done settling for rushed 10-minute appointments and band-aid prescriptions.
We handle everything you'd expect from a great PCP — annual physicals, chronic disease management, preventive screenings, and sick visits, alongside one of the most comprehensive medical weight loss programs in DFW. That means evidence-based treatment, GLP-1 therapy, body composition analysis, and a plan tailored to you, not a generic handout.
If you want a practice that listens, digs deeper, and treats the whole person — not just the symptom — you've found it. This is the PCP your last doctor should have been.

I had a really nice experience at Dr. Rashads clinic. I went in with a few concerns, and he made the whole visit feel easy and comfortable. He took the time, listened carefully, and explained things in a way that was clear and spot on. I appreciated his positivity, knowledge and enthusiasm. The visit felt straightforward and not overwhelming, just very practical and manageable. Really glad I found this place and would definitely recommend him.

As a retired dentist, I’ve spent most of my life caring for patients and understand clear communication is key in HC. My asthma unfortunately affected my quality of life so finding the right physician has been important to me. Seeing Dr. Rashad here was genuinely a reassuring experience. He took the time to listen and understand my concerns. He explained every thing clearly & thoughtfully, and his approach felt careful and individualized rather than routine. I highly recommend this young doctor, especially for anyone dealing w/ complex conditions.

I went to Synergy mainly for help with concentration and diagnosed ADHD, and honestly it was a really refreshing experience. Dr. Rashad didn’t jump straight to conclusions or meds. He actually took time to understand how my issues were affecting my day-to-day life. What I liked most was how empathetic he was. He broke things down in a way that made sense & helped me think about structure, habits & treatment options. I felt comfortable leaving clearer and more in control. Highly recommend!!

I had a really positive experience at Synergy working with Doctor Rashad for my diabetes. He took the time to listen and really understand what I was dealing with, without making me feel rushed or judged. He explained my condition and treatment option in a way that actually made sense, and focused on practical and realistic changes I could stick to. His clinic environment and staff also did you very welcoming. I’d definitely recommend Dr. Rashad to anyone looking for knowledgeable, thoughtful & supportive care.
