Meet Dr. Sam Hy
For over a decade, I've helped patients manage obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and other metabolic conditions. I founded Acumen Health Institute because I believe lasting health comes from addressing insulin resistance through evidence-based nutrition, lifestyle medicine, physician guidance, and modern therapies when appropriate.
By addressing insulin resistance through evidence-based nutrition, lifestyle medicine, physician oversight, and modern therapies when appropriate, my goal is to help patients achieve lasting metabolic health.

Instead of chasing symptoms, we focus on identifying and treating insulin resistance and the metabolic dysfunction driving chronic disease.
Every treatment plan is designed and supervised by a board-certified Internal Medicine physician—not a health coach or algorithm.
Root Cause Medicine
