Dr. Otto Puempel opened the doors to his family practice in 1962. After a short time in practice, he quickly realized there was a great need in the area of Bariatrics (weight management). Since that time his practice has grown and become well known in the area for helping thousands of men and women achieve their healthy weight goals.
Dr. Patrick Kirlin has been practicing medicine in the Metroplex for over 35 years with extensive knowledge and success helping patients with weight management. After retiring from private practice Dr Kirlin joined Dr Puempel’s staff and has now limited his practice exclusively to Bariatrics. Dr Kirlin works at our Arlington and Waco offices.
