Marcela Ferrão is a medical practice led by an endocrinologist and metabologist offering care focused on hormonal and metabolic health, eating disorders, obesity, and weight management. The practice’s approach emphasizes healthier living through balance rather than rigid, unsustainable diets. Dr. Ferrão describes empathy, attentive listening, and individualized care as central to treatment, with each patient’s personal history informing the clinical approach.

Patients can book in-person consultations in São Paulo or choose telemedicine, making care accessible to those unable to travel. Online appointments take place by video call through Zoom and follow an approach designed to match the quality of in-person consultations. During a consultation, Dr. Ferrão discusses the patient’s concerns and relevant personal and family history to guide diagnostic and treatment decisions. Laboratory and imaging tests are requested according to individual needs, and digital prescriptions, certificates, and test requests are delivered by email or message. The practice states that these documents are digitally signed in accordance with Brazilian medical regulations and are valid nationwide.
