Medawar Rodarte

Dr. Melody Rodarte is a double-boarded Internal and Obesity Medicine Specialist, also certified in Medical Aesthetics, Wound Care, and Hyperbaric Medicine, and has been practicing in Arizona since 2006.

Whether it’s weight loss, nutrition, internal medicine, or aesthetics, Dr. Rodarte has always had a passion for helping patients achieve optimum health from the inside out. After several eye-opening years and family illnesses, she made the decision to always do what’s best to treat the whole person.

“Our bodies are all uniquely built and wired. That’s why we start by identifying the root cause of the ailments and deficiencies, then provide a more comprehensive and collaborative care plan customized to each patient. We believe in treating the whole person — not just a symptom — requiring us to work closely with other specialists who can help us see the entire health picture.”

Dr. Rodarte and her team at Activated Health & Wellness in Gilbert take a personalized approach to help patients feel better, look better, and ultimately live better. For her, that approach is centered around a mission to be at the forefront of how medicine should be by offering personalized services and treatment plans for weight loss, internal medicine, hormone replacement, and body contouring.

Dr. Rodarte and her husband, Tony, also started The Compassion Alliance: a non-profit that connects first responders and their families with free confidential help from mental health professionals when the stress of their job becomes too much.
