Dr. Janese Laster is board certified in Internal Medicine, Gastroenterology, Obesity medicine,
and Nutrition. She completed Internal Medicine residency and Gastroenterology fellowship
training at Georgetown University Hospital, then was accepted into the highly competitive
Nestle Clinical Nutrition fellowship program, and finished her training with an advanced
endoscopic bariatric fellowship in Madrid, Spain.
While working as a general gastroenterologist, Dr. Laster realized there was a lack of emphasis
on nutrition, which is the crux of overall gastroenterology care. She noticed that patients
continued to have persistent symptoms, until they focused on diet and weight management as
the central causative factor. So she opened Gut Theory Total Digestive Care to bridge the divide
with medical innovations and the basics of food as medicine.
Dr Laster enjoys the challenge of finding creative ways for patients to enjoy healthier meals
while embracing the start of a new lifestyle. She provides comprehensive care from detailed
and tailored nutrition education and plans along with consistent follow up for weight
maintenance adding evidence- based solutions for success. Furthermore, she has expert
knowledge of pharmacologic therapy for weight loss and minimally invasive endoscopic
bariatric procedures, such as gastric balloons and endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty as well. Dr.
Laster’s goal is to help patients love their bodies by reaching their total health and wellness
goals.
