Ovidio Bermudez M.D.

Today we identify types and diagnosis of many common eating disorders.

Ovidio Bermudez, MD, is the Chief Medical Officer and Medical Director of Child and Adolescent Services at Eating Recovery Center in Denver, Colorado. He holds academic appointments as Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Pediatrics at the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine. He is Board certified in Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine.

Dr. Bermudez has lectured nationally and internationally on eating disorders, childhood obesity and other topics related to pediatric and adult healthcare, and has been recognized for his dedication and advocacy in the field of eating disorders.

“We have drifted away from shaming and blaming of families and have moved toward an understanding that families are an integral part of eating disorders treatment, not only in helping an individual respond well to treatment, but also go onto lasting recovery.”
We hope to have Dr. Bermudez return to the Dr. Don Show in a couple of months to discuss the epidemic problem of childhood obesity.
