Dr. Eric Ibegbu in an Avensia Wellness portrait

Meet your physician

Eric Ibegbu,
MD, FACG

Founder & Medical Director

Experience that earns trust.

Board-certified physician with more than two decades of clinical experience in gastroenterology, advanced endoscopy, obesity, metabolic health, and physician-directed weight management.

Dr. Ibegbu founded Avensia Wellness to bring a more comprehensive, physician-led standard to weight, metabolic, hormonal, and longevity medicine.

His background spans advanced gastroenterology, obesity treatment, medical weight management, and advanced endobariatric therapies. That experience supports a broader understanding of the full continuum of metabolic care.

His approach begins with a simple idea: metabolic setbacks are physiological, not personal failures. Patients need a strategy grounded in biology and backed by ongoing medical support.
