ABOUT DR. IBIYINKA
Meet Dr. Ibiyinka Ladapo.MD, MPH
Physician. Author. Health Educator.
INTRODUCTION
Medicine Grounded in Knowledge & Collaboration.
Hello! I'm Dr. Ibiyinka, a double board-certified physician in Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine. I treat adults with chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and fatty liver — with a focus on preventive health, metabolic syndrome, and physician-led weight management tailored to the individual.
My path began with a medical degree in Lagos, Nigeria, followed by a Master of Public Health and rigorous Internal Medicine training as a hospitalist caring for acutely ill patients — later deepened by board certification in Obesity Medicine.
Hospital-trained yet drawn to ambulatory care, I am committed to preventing chronic disease before it begins. As an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Medicine, I teach medical students and residents, empowering the next generation of clinicians.
Beyond medicine, I mentor young physicians and serve as Vice President of my Homeowners Association. I live with my family in Texas, enjoying life one step at a time — recharging with friends and preparing for the next challenge.
