“The entire experience with Dr. Omar and technician Sam was very professional. First, Sam sat with me and explained the details of the procedure and any possible risks. After I settled in on the screening platform, Dr. Omar realized I had neglected to remove my shoes. He and Sam did me the favor of untying my laces and removing them for me! Then the scanning began; I got so comfortable that I actually fell asleep till it was over. Afterwards, Same explained all the results, told me what percentile I fell into relative to others my age, then got me registered so I could review the results later if I so desired. I suffered cardiac arrest almost 15 years ago so I am always on the lookout for new technologies which can assist in avoiding another such episode in my life. I found the DEXA Scan to be quite illuminating and the staff to be helpful, courteous, and caregiving.”

About Dr. Omar Haque

Tired of diets that don’t work? Weight loss should be medical—not miserable. Insurance-Covered. Telehealth. Personalized. Expert & Compassionate Care. If you're tired of quick fixes that don’t last, I’m here to help you finally take control of your weight in a way that’s sustainable, science-based, compassionate, and tailored to your body and goals. And covered by insurance (no membership fees!), and no fake and gross "food" to purchase! I provide judgment-free, empathic care for individuals navigating the physical and emotional effects of weight gain and weight stigma. Trained under a Harvard Medical School faculty member, I use the latest medical tools—like in-depth labs, evidence-based medications, app-based progress tracking, metabolic rate testing, body composition analysis—to continuously fine-tune your treatment plan. If appropriate, I also prescribe FDA-approved medications, such as GLP-1 medications like Ozempic/Wegovy (semaglutide), and Zepbound/Mounjaro (tirzepatide) as part of a broader, personalized plan that includes nutritional and behavioral strategies. These all can be powerful tools, but I always make sure they’re used safely, monitored closely, and combined with long-term support for true transformation that is sustainable. Whether you're dealing with menopause-related weight gain, prediabetes, emotional eating, PCOS, or just years of frustration—you’re not alone. My holistic approach integrates medical, nutritional, psychological, and lifestyle care to help you feel better, function better, and live better—not just lose weight. Let’s talk. Tell me where you’re stuck, and I’ll help guide you forward—with science, compassion, and a plan that actually is likely to work for your life and story.

The appoint went really well. Both the Dr and the PA were profession and great listeners. I felt they really cared and wanted to help me reach my goal and help me with all the reasons that lead to where I am at now. I believe with their help I’m finally going to be happy with myself and see results and know that they are there to support me all the way.

First meeting was pretty much an intake, with not much time spent on what to do next. I'm hoping the next visit will address all my questions. i.e.,...so, what DO I eat????? Jenn sent the email about the Mediterranian diet, which is only slightly different than what I've been doing but not losing weight. Jenn was very nice, easy to talk to and she was very thorough as far as intakes go.
Verified patientVideo visit
both providers made me extremely comfortable. I hope I continue my weight loss journey with them. They asked questions and even though I felt I was all over the place. they both still listened. I felt important. thankyou willing participant
Verified patient
My online appointment went well I felt comfortable talking to both people. I was a little confused at first as to whether it was an in-office meeting or remote, that would've been nice if it was clearer from the onset, also it would be nice if the faces were not so big in the video chat, it's a little disorienting to have such a big face right in your face but that's just a personal prob I guess.

I was actually astounded by the level of attention paid to me as I was talking (sad statement about the expectations we have for medical professionals in the country) for perhaps the first time in my life. Why can't all doctors plug into what their patients are saying?! Thanks Dr. Omar for restoring my faith in doctors. Looking forward to working with you and your team.

My meeting, an initial consult was successful despite my own cheap earbuds. Make sure you have a mic equipped device if you do it via telemed. Even though I plan to meet in person next time I think you can still have a meaningful visit this way and I’m confident it can be an effective way to get treatment during this pandemic.

The insight here changed my life for the better. Dr. Haque at the Center for Brain Health exceeded all of my expectations. They are the most caring and competent in the area of depression treatment in my experience, and are generous with their time, compassionate, and attentive. The knowledge, credentials, and insight here can change you life.
Knows the most up to date treatments for depression. I have turned to Dr. Haque for thorough, compassionate, and insightful medical advice for years, and know others will also appreciate him extending his care and skills to them as well. I had a recent bout of depression that frighteningly dimmed my life prospects, and Dr. Haque was instrumental in helping me recover. He personally checked on me regularly and avoided treatments that had not worked in the past, preferring to look at cutting edge research specialized for my case.
Great results. I was skeptical at first but no medications I have taken so far have worked in treating my depression so I decided why not try TMS? There are little to no side effects and I have seen an improvement in my overall mood and happiness more than any medications have given me and it only took 3 weeks to start seeing improvements. Overall I would highly recommend this treatment to any person suffering depression because I truly believe it works and there were no big risks or pain involved.
Overall my TMS treatment experience was very positive and I would recommend those struggling with depression to consider TMS and reach out to Dr. Haque to see if they would be a good candidate. Dr. Haque's approach to treatment is compassionate, patient centered, and evidence based. He is very responsive, attentive to patients' nedds, and genuinely interested in helping your health and well-being.
Initially I was very skeptical and negative about getting better. However, I could not have imagined feeling as good now as I do. Scheduling was seamless. We worked around my work and other commitments. I really thought that I needed to be hospitalized and was making contingency plans to continue the treatment in the hospital. However, I started feeling better after about four weeks and cannot imagine that I was considering in patient care. I highly recommend this treatment and Dr. Haque's care.
I'm back on my feet because of Dr. H. I met Dr. Haque many years ago; he has helped my life along in so many ways; I thank him whenever I come back to see him; i can't recommend him more; thanks Dr. H!
The end result was truly beyond my imagination. I have not felt this good since I can remember. I had a very positive experience throughout the treatment period. Dr. Haque was extremely helpful with his advice. Initially, I was despondent and very skeptical about the possibility of recovery. However, the end result was truly beyond my imagination. I have not felt this good since I can remember. The care was exceptional from meeting my scheduling needs to recommending additional things I could be doing to improve my mental health.
