As a highly accomplished physician executive with over 20 years of experience as a GI and bariatric surgeon, Dr. Aggarwal is uniquely positioned to discuss the intersection of medicine, surgery, and digital health in tackling the growing obesity crisis. During our discussion, we will explore how twenty30 health is leveraging technology, human health coaches, and complex data analysis to create personalized patient care journeys that drive high-value outcomes. Dr. Aggarwal will share his insights on the role of digital health solutions in improving access, engagement, and efficacy of obesity treatments, including the integration of GLP-1 medications into comprehensive care plans. 

 

We will also delve into the challenges and opportunities of building and scaling digital health startups in the obesity space, drawing on Dr. Aggarwal's experience at Thomas Jefferson University's venture arm and his work with companies like Livongo and Neuroflow. The conversation will touch on the importance of clinical validation, user-centered design, and value-based care models in driving adoption and impact.
