I was looking for info on Sulfa burps and stumbled upon her podcast and I love her. Better yet, when I saw her name, she use to be my hubby’s MD. Stumbling onto her podcast was a total surprise!! Love her info.

This podcast is heaven sent. I really enjoy hearing the topic for the week. Although I may not be able to relate to every topic I am certain I will at some point in my health journey. Thanks for sharing this information.

This podcast is an absolute gem. It’s informative, compassionate, and filled with practical advice that feels both empowering and approachable. Dr Rentea breaks down complex topics in a way that makes you feel seen and supported, not overwhelmed. Her voice is so soothing-it’s like listening to a trusted friend walk you through everything you need to know. I’ve learned so much and feel genuinely hopeful after listening.

This podcast offers incredibly practical, evidence-based advice for those wanting t manage their weight sustainably. Highly recommend as a dietitian who works in the weight loss space.

Started Zepbound in fall 2024 and after the first two months of figuring out (for first time in my adult life) how to approach weight loss, discovered this podcast. Not only is Dr. Rentea an experienced physician with in depth knowledge of obesity medicine, she uses a glp-1 herself so she brings a level of understanding and the viewpoint of actively being on this class of medications that is so invaluable. She gives detailed tips for success and addresses questions from her patients and listeners that has been so beneficial to my own journey. Love her on social media as well, but her podcasts are really the “main course” of the content she produces. Really appreciate the podcast and value it brings to the glp-1 community.

The old episodes were pretty good. These new podcasts are basically just telling you what her paid episodes will be about & trying to sell her programs.

This podcast has literally changed my life. My doctor didn’t really understand GLP-1 medications. I started listening to Dr. Rentea and suddenly I had the info I needed to succeed. It’s like having a coach in your corner who understands your journey, doesn’t expect perfection, and will give you the tools you need to succeed (in a way you can hear them). A must listen for anyone on a GLP-1 journey.

I love listening to your podcast. I find it incredibly informative. I love your kindness when you are talking about obesity. Thank you for taking the time to do this.

The advice and tips Dr Rentea gives is kind but direct. So easy to implement into every day life, without feeling like diet culture!

I love this show!!! Dr. Rentea does a beautiful job explaining the science behind weight loss and using GLP1s in an easy to understand way. She has a very straight forward and personable manner about her that makes her a joy to listen to.

I have been listening to this podcast for weeks ! Excellent info! Solid info and as a medical professional , easy to understand and she breaks down the info for all to understand . Highly recommend this podcast! Thank you !!

I have really enjoyed the podcast ! As someone who is new to medication for weight loss it has changed so much. Thank you for your work

Thank you Dr. Rentea! A good part of my success on this lifestyle changing journey has been about listening to your podcast. I listen to the episodes many times over and gain guidance, perspective and ideas for supporting life change, mind change, nutrition, style, wellness, weight loss medicine research and info. Most of all your amazing intellect and loving heart have helped me understand my process and not feel so alone. This podcast and all you’ve brought into feel like having a guardian angel.

I have learned so much from Dr. Rentea and I really, really enjoy listening to her podcast. The principles shared here have given me many useful insights and strategies. I leave each episode encouraged! She is vulnerable about her own struggles and this makes the podcast so relatable; she speaks respectfully and is not at all condescending to her listeners. <3

Dr. Rentea represents what health care should be. A doctor that has the time to listen to and understands the challenges faced with people with metabolic disorders, like obesity. It’s rare to see in today’s managed care system. The podcast is a great extension of that and she is able to offer guidance and tips while explaining in plain English, medical terminology that would be beyond many people all in 30 minutes or so. 5 star podcast and person.

Dr. Retnea is the perfect combination of honest, compassionate and evidence-based. As a new obesity medicine physician, I walk away from each episode with several practical pearls to bring back to my patients and my life.

I found this podcast back in April 2024 when I started Zepbound and wanted more research based evidence about the medication. I have loved and shared every episode I have listened too. The doctor is very knowledgeable, relatable and keeps the information easy to understand. You and your team are doing an amazing job and I can’t wait to listen to more!! Thank you for sharing your expertise!!!

Dr. Rentea is great! I wish her practice was in my state. I have listened to each episode twice just to make sure I caught everything she was sharing. Highly recommend listening to her podcast!

Today I listened to the stylist pod. So so good and helpful! Thank you for all your tips.

I listen to Dr. Rentea every week, for tips for myself, to share with my patients, and for updates on medicine. I love her practical advice, and breadth of guests and topics.

I first found Dr. Rentea’s podcast a couple years ago. Her wholistic approach was appealing to me and led me to other leaders in the field. I since have used GLP 1 medication as a tool in my health journey, and over 18 months have coaxed my body to give up 45 lbs. I have a little way to go, but I feel like Dr. Rentea has been a partner in my health journey, coaching and encouraging me, and giving me science-backed information I trust.

Dr. Rentea offers real-world advice and support for those on the journey of weight loss, particularly those using GLP-1 medications. Her short, informative episodes are packed with encouragement and positivity and can help get me back on track mentally. In a field that’s more often than not filled with “should” and “can’t,” she is a loud, resounding “Yes! You can!”

Loving this podcast. It has been helpful in understanding the underlying issues related not only to obesity, but unhealthy food thoughts. As a NP, it is great to implement some of these tactics with my patients.

This has given me a lot of great real-life information on how to think about a healthy body composition and how to treat GLP-1 side effects. I listen as soon as she posts a new episode.

This podcast is a must for people who want to learn current information about managing obesity. Dr. Rentea is an expert who has also lived in a larger body and chooses to help others by specializing in obesity medicine. She is encouraging and relatable. She also has a variety of experts in specific fields, that are guests on her podcast from time to times. This is a QUALITY podcast offering MUCH great information. It has been a great learning tool and support for me.

As a board-certified Pediatrician and Obesity doc, this is my favorite podcast. All episodes are so easy to listen to and informative. I will continue to recommend it to my patients. Keep up the good work!

Host is great at taking 1 issue/topic and explaining it. She doesn’t get distracted by other related topics, which streamlines each episode into manageable/consumable amounts of time.

The doctor has a great way of conveying the information. The episodes are just the right length.

I love this podcast! I love how the Dr brings in other specialists to talk about the obesity. She is making it easy to understand. I cannot believe it took me so long to find it. Thanks TikTok

This podcast is informative, easy to understand and very impactful. I look forward to each and every episode.

I first saw Dr. Retea on tiktok, where she offers really good weight loss advice. Her podcast goes further by talking about more than weight - she digs into improving your mindset and finding your motivation for whatever you want to change or improve. Plus it’s short and easy to listen to. I highly recommend!

I listen to your podcast when I walk at night. I’ve lost 63 pounds so far but have been “stuck” for the last couple of months. Your episode about maintenance was so needed. Thank you for recognizing that maintaining the loss is an accomplishment as well. Love your podcast!

I absolutely love Dr Rentea’s podcast! She’s so knowledgeable and personable and her network of other experts are also amazing. What she’s done here is she’s created a warm and supportive community of people who are trying super hard to treat our bodies well. And that means delving into spaces and behaviors that for whatever reason are challenging to myself and I’m sure many other listeners. If you’re at all looking for connecting with expert healthcare professionals who KNOW anti obesity medicinal and behavioral approaches beyond your GP’s unhelpful and non-actionable yearly advice to just eat less and move more, than you really should start listening to this podcast on a regular basis. Thank you, Dr Rentea! I know that although you’re a doctor but you’re not MY doctor 🙂, I treasure every episode.

This podcast is so very informative! The topics and conversations are timely and interesting! Love it!

I've been following Dr. Matthea Rentea for a few years now, having discovered her on other podcasts, including her own previous show. (And what a joy it is that she has a solo show now, and that she forged ahead and opened her own clinic!) She brings such a wonderful and necessary blend of the science, medicine, COMPASSION and empathy. Having struggled with her own weight, she can understand her patients and everyone else who battles with their size, self image, and self-worth, because she's going through it right along with us. 💛 I so appreciate her loving and non-judgmental approach while also providing genuinely useful, actionable strategies for realistic and sustainable changes not just about body weight/size, but also for overall health and wellbeing. Dr. Matthea is the real deal. No hyperbole, clickbait, or false promises. Thank you, doc!

I am a NP that works in bariatrics/obesity medicine and this podcast is fabulous. I am focused on medical management for patients and absolutely love the perspective and information in these podcasts for sustainable change!

This podcast is so upbeat and positive. It talks about the hard things with obesity but also how to over come it! So many things that are eye opening and I had no idea that other people went through the same things!

It’s real life with real science and real conversations about weight and mind.

I love how down to earth she is and how much good info I learn from listening. It helps me to know she is a doctor and knows her stuff!

Matthea is so knowledgeable and does a wonderful job breaking things down to a level that’s understandable and relatable. Her empathy and compassion for people shines through everything she does. It’s very refreshing to see a medical provider who is willing to listen, understand, and engage in a helpful and kind way. So thankful to have found her.

Great podcast…love it!!

I am really enjoying this podcast. Excellent information and have found it very helpful. Only one of the episodes was difficult to listen to…the “sleep” coach had a weird, nervous giggle that made the episode impossible to get through. Overall this is a great podcast!

If you are looking for science-based information about all things obesity, you have come to the right place. Dr. Rentea presents information in way that everyone can understand. She leaves the judgement behind and creates a safe space where everyone can learn. I cannot recommend this podcast more!

This podcast is full of easy to understand information! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge and experience with us!

Dr. Rentea’s podcast is wonderful and I recommend it highly to anyone who has personally struggled or has a loved one who has struggled with their weight. Her explanations and advice are research based, thoughtful, practical and such a contrast to the huge amount of bad information that is out there. She is also up to date on all the newer medications and medical interventions available to help manage weight. I’m so grateful to have randomly found her on Tiktok and subscribed to her podcast.

As a person with a history of dieting most of my life, I’m grateful for Matea’s healthy long term recommendations! I’m working on making small changes that I can stick with for the rest of my life. Thank you!

Appreciate the fact based information. Love the reminders that obesity is a chronic disease. Thank you for creating a non-judgemental space where persons can learn and gain hope.

This physician gives great information in a non biased way. She gives the facts! Thank you!

I love this podcast. This doctor is honest and tells it like it is. She gets right to the heart of the matter and knows what it is that I want to know. Very informative. Makes me want to move to Illinois to have her for my doctor.

I am a former patient of Dr Rentea. I saw her when she was working as an internal medicine doctor. At the time, she was working on getting board certified with obesity medicine. This physician is so smart, so kind and listening to her podcast makes me feel as hopeful and cared for as I did when I sat in her medical office at IU. Her compassion for her patients/listeners comes through in her voice. . I am thankful she has taken her career in this direction and will no doubt help so many people. 10/10 stars
