Care Team
Gunardi Irawan MD, DABOM
Primary Care & Weight Management Specialist
I am Dr. Gunardi Irawan, a board-certified specialist in Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine, dedicated to providing comprehensive, compassionate, and evidence-based care to my patients. Whether you need preventive care, chronic disease management, or a structured weight loss plan, I am committed to helping you achieve long-term health.
A Patient-Centered Approach to Primary Care & Weight Management
I take a personalized and empathetic approach to patient care, ensuring that every individual feels heard and supported. As a primary care physician, I focus on:
- Preventive care – annual physicals, screenings, and vaccinations
- Chronic disease management – diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and more
- Same-day priority appointments for urgent needs.
- Convenient virtual visits for primary care and weight management
For patients struggling with weight-related health concerns, I provide a supportive, science-based approach to obesity medicine, utilizing:
- Advanced body composition analysis (seca mBCA 554)
- Lab evaluations and metabolic health assessments
- In-depth medical history and lifestyle assessments
- Personalized treatment plans that may include lifestyle modifications, medications, or behavioral strategies
- Virtual consultations available for weight management
My Background & Training
I completed my medical education in Germany at RWTH Aachen University, followed by internal medicine residency training in Framingham, MA, at Tufts Medical Center/Metrowest Medical Center, where I also served as Chief Resident.
After residency, I spent several years as an attending physician at UMass Memorial Health, where I was also a Clinical Assistant Professor at UMass Medical School. My deep connection to the region and its community drives my commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-focused care.
Beyond Medicine
Outside of my practice, I enjoy weightlifting, spending time with my two daughters, and hiking,
which I find both relaxing and restorative.
