Our Practice

Medicine with clarity, privacy, and a long-term view.

Empire Medical Wellness is a private, physician-led medical practice serving adults in New York and New Jersey. The practice provides focused outpatient care in obesity medicine, addiction medicine, and adult mental health through secure telemedicine, with in-person appointments available as well.

A focused medical practice designed around the patient experience.

Empire Medical Wellness was created to provide patients with enough time to explain what is happening, understand their treatment options, and leave with a clear plan.
The practice is organized around three distinct clinical services: obesity medicine, addiction medicine, and adult mental health care. Patients may seek one service independently or receive coordinated care when more than one area is relevant.
The care model emphasizes thoughtful evaluation, personalized recommendations, consistent follow-up, and communication that remains clear throughout treatment.

“Patients deserve medical care that is clear, individualized, and built to support meaningful progress over time.”

Dr. Mohit Chhatpar, DO, DABOM — Chief Medical Officer and Medical Director

To make specialized medical care clear, personal, and actionable.

Our mission is to help patients understand their health, evaluate their options, and move forward with a treatment plan designed for meaningful, lasting progress. Every patient interaction is guided by clinical judgment, direct communication, respect for individual goals, and attention to the realities of daily life.
