About Trajectory Health Partners

Trajectory Health Partners evolved from the successful concepts that our founder, Dr. Karen Jerome-Zapadka, established at the VGA Center for Obesity Medicine in Beaver County, Pennsylvania. During the past five years, she developed a program there that improved and often reversed the health risks associated with metabolic diseases.

Recent studies estimate that nearly 90% of our population have a least one marker of
poor metabolic health and evolving insulin resistance. Left untreated, insulin resistance can contribute to most of the chronic diseases we now see, including MASLD, Prediabetes, Type 2 Diabetes, cardiovascular disease, multiple cancers, dementia, infertility, PCOS,
obesity and mental health disorders.


Our practice is focused on Metabolic Health and Metabolic (Insulin Resistance) Syndrome with a special emphasis on Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), formerly known as Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease. This is now a leading indication
for liver transplantation.

Our holistic approach to treating insulin resistance is unique for every patient. 

We look forward to guiding you on your new trajectory toward better metabolic health!

Our Mission

To identify the earliest signs of Metabolic /

Insulin Resistance Syndrome and reverse

it before disease begins.

 

To recognize that every patient deserves
to know that there is a pathway to metabolic
disease remission that often does not require

long-term medication.

​To help patients recognize that Metabolic
Syndrome and Insulin Resistance are states
of carbohydrate intolerance, requiring
Therapeutic Carbohydrate Reduction.
