Understanding Your Physiology Changes Everything
We use advanced diagnostics to measure how your metabolism, body composition, and cardiopulmonary fitness are actually functioning — then build precise, practical treatment plans around what we find.
Metabolic Medicine Built on Measurement, Not Assumption
North Star Metabolic & Performance Clinic is a physician-led medical practice focused on metabolism, body composition, performance, and long-term physiologic health. We exist because the standard approach to metabolic care often relies on incomplete information — brief visits, basic labs, and generalized recommendations that leave too many patients without answers.
Our model is different. We combine advanced physiologic testing — including cardiopulmonary exercise testing, body composition analysis, indirect calorimetry, liver elastography, and detailed laboratory evaluation — with careful physician interpretation. The result is a clearer picture of what is actually happening in your body and a more targeted path forward.
Whether you are working to improve weight, energy, body composition, metabolic health, or physical function, we approach every case with the same principle: measure first, then treat with precision.
A More Complete View of Your Health
Most metabolic and weight-related care focuses on surface-level markers — a number on the scale, a basic metabolic panel, a brief conversation about diet. We believe patients deserve more than that.
Physician-Led
Every evaluation, test interpretation, and treatment plan is directed by a physician trained in internal medicine, obesity medicine, and advanced diagnostics. This is clinical care, not a coaching program.
Built on Objective Data
We measure resting metabolic rate, body composition, cardiopulmonary fitness, liver health, and detailed metabolic and hormonal markers. Treatment decisions are guided by what testing reveals, not assumptions.
Integrated Diagnosis
Symptoms like weight gain, fatigue, and poor exercise tolerance often share deeper physiologic drivers. We work to identify those drivers rather than treating each symptom in isolation.
Collaborative Care
We work alongside primary care physicians, surgeons, orthopedic specialists, and other providers. Our diagnostics and evaluations are designed to integrate into a patient's broader care — not replace it.
Comprehensive Metabolic Care
Our services span weight management, fatigue evaluation, performance assessment, pre-operative optimization, liver health, and proactive executive health — all connected by a unified diagnostic and treatment model.
Weight Loss & Metabolic Health
Comprehensive obesity and metabolic care focused on identifying the physiologic drivers of weight gain and building durable treatment strategies.
Learn moreFatigue & Performance Medicine
Systematic evaluation of low energy, reduced stamina, and exercise intolerance using objective physiologic testing to identify the actual limitation.
Learn morePerformance Physicals
Proactive, data-driven evaluation for patients who want a deeper understanding of their health, risk profile, and functional capacity.
Learn morePeri-Operative Metabolic Evaluation
Objective pre-surgical assessment using physiologic testing to define risk, identify modifiable limitations, and support targeted prehabilitation.
Learn moreBody Composition & Bone Health
DEXA-based analysis of body fat, lean mass, visceral adiposity, and bone density — because the scale alone tells an incomplete story.
Learn moreLiver Health Assessment
Non-invasive evaluation of liver fat and fibrosis using FibroScan technology, integrated into a broader metabolic health strategy.
Learn moreA Diagnostic and Treatment Resource for Your Patients
North Star Metabolic & Performance Clinic is designed to integrate with your practice — not compete with it. We provide advanced metabolic evaluation, body composition analysis, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and detailed physiologic interpretation that supports clinical decision-making across specialties.
Whether you are managing a patient with treatment-resistant obesity, evaluating surgical readiness, assessing unexplained fatigue, or optimizing care for metabolic bone disease, our diagnostics and physician-led evaluations can add measurable value to your clinical workflow.
We communicate findings clearly, return patients with actionable data, and collaborate on care plans that reflect the clinical reality of each case.

We do not treat symptoms in isolation. We identify physiologic patterns, measure function directly, and use that information to guide more precise, more durable care. If you are ready for a more thorough approach to your metabolic health, we are ready to help.
