Most doctors don't fix food noise.
I do.

Constant cravings. Thinking about food all day. Eating past fullness even when you don't want to. That's food noise — and it's not a willpower problem. It's biology. Dr. Zu fixes the biology.

Sound familiar?

Food noise is what most doctors ignore.

It's not about discipline. It's a hormonal signal problem — and it's fixable with the right medical approach.

🧠

Constant cravings

You think about food even when you're not hungry. Your brain won't shut off the signal.

🔄

Can't stop at fullness

You eat past the point of full — not because you want to, but because the urge overrides the signal.

😔

Willpower keeps failing

You've tried every diet. The problem isn't you — it's that no one treated the biology behind the noise.

GLP-1 therapy quiets food noise at the source.

Semaglutide and tirzepatide work by restoring the GLP-1 signal your brain is missing — the one that says "I'm satisfied." Most patients report the mental chatter about food drops significantly within the first few weeks. Dr. Zu prescribes and manages GLP-1 therapy as part of a complete plan, not just a pill.

"Dr. Tye is fantastic! Since moving to the Houston area, I've struggled with finding a healthcare provider who didn't make me feel rushed and actually listened — that's not the case with Dr. Tye. From the very beginning she was personable, professional and passionate about her specialties. Since working with her I've been able to maintain my weight loss and we're working on a plan to keep my conscious efforts going!"

Your Doctor

Dr. Zuleikha Tyebjee, MD

Dr. Zu trained at McGovern Medical School and completed her residency at UT Health Houston. After residency she joined Houston Methodist — and left, because the system gave her 15 minutes per patient. That wasn't enough to actually help anyone.

Food noise is something she talks about with almost every patient. Most doctors never ask about it. Dr. Zu built her practice around treating the biology behind it — hormones, hunger signals, GLP-1 deficiency — not just handing out a diet sheet.

She is a family physician — she can treat underlying conditions like anxiety, depression, thyroid issues, and perimenopause alongside your weight loss care.
