Experience the JCC Community
Welcome to the JCC

GLP-1 medications are changing the conversation around weight loss and chronic disease—but they're only part of the story.
In this clip from the newest episode of JCC Voices, Dr. Mike Parkinson shares a perspective that puts the bigger picture into focus:
"You can't fix a public health problem with a medical screwdriver."
Join Carolyn Kontos, Dr. Mike Parkinson, and Dr. Jonathan Bonnet for a thoughtful conversation about GLP-1 medications, lifestyle medicine, and how community plays a vital role in long-term health.
🎙️ Episode 3 is available now. Watch or listen at jccpgh.org/podcast/ or wherever you get your podcasts.
We'd love to hear your thoughts after you watch.
