Washington, DC Team

Dr. Michael L. Glickman is a triple board-certified physician in Family Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, and Obesity Medicine, and the founder of Revolution Medicine, Health & Fitness—one of the fastest-growing, comprehensive weight management and metabolic health practices in the country.

Since beginning his career in 2013, Dr. Glickman has dedicated himself to transforming how Americans experience obesity care—moving far beyond the outdated “eat less, exercise more” model and championing a modern, evidence-based, deeply compassionate approach that recognizes obesity as the complex, chronic, relapsing disease that it is.

He launched Revolution Medicine in 2021 with a clear belief: the U.S. health care system is built to manage disease, not prevent it—and patients deserve better. Under his leadership, Revolution has expanded from a single office in Washington, DC into a multi-state, multidisciplinary program offering advanced medical weight management, remote patient monitoring, body composition analysis, behavioral support, fitness and nutrition coaching, home sleep apnea testing, and clinical ultrasound for liver health. Today, Revolution serves thousands of patients across the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast and has been recognized repeatedly as a leading program in the DC region and beyond.

Dr. Glickman’s clinical philosophy centers on treating the whole person—to create individualized, science-driven care plans that not only promote weight loss but also reverse chronic disease and improve long-term quality of life. He is also involved in national obesity-care advocacy and collaborates closely with colleagues across the field to advance evidence-based guidelines and improve access to treatment.

Dr. Glickman completed medical school at the Florida State University College of Medicine and his residency at VCU–Fairfax Family Practice / INOVA Fairfax Hospital.
