About Marcelo
Hello! I'm Dr. Marcelo Ernesto Brito Telles, a dedicated family physician based in the Lewisville/Carrollton/Denton area. With a passion for providing patient-centered care, I established my own clinic -Lakepointe Primary Care- with the goal to promote wellness and preventive healthcare for individuals of all ages, making sure each patient receives the personalized attention they deserve.
As a healthcare provider, I have firsthand experience with GLP-1 medications, such as Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, for weight loss management. These medications have proven to be effective tools in supporting patients struggling with obesity by promoting feelings of fullness and regulating appetite. I have seen positive outcomes in patients, not only in weight reduction but also in improvements to overall health, including better blood sugar control. With proper medical guidance and lifestyle changes, GLP-1 therapies offer a promising approach for long-term weight management.
I'm fluent in both English and Spanish, which allows me to communicate effectively with a diverse group of patients. Whether you're in need of a routine check-up or managing a chronic condition, I'm here to guide you on your health journey.
I look forward to partnering with you for a healthier tomorrow!
Treatment philosophy:
I believe in providing compassionate, patient-centered care that focuses on the whole person, not just their symptoms. Building strong relationships with my patients is key. I engage with them actively, listening to their concerns and involving them in their treatment decisions. My core values center around empathy, respect, and empowerment. With extensive experience in family medicine, I specialize in managing chronic conditions and preventive care. I am also committed to serving underserved communities. Through education and support, I aim to help my patients achieve their health goals and improve their quality of life. Together, we can foster a healthier future.

About Me
Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?
I became a physician to make a meaningful impact on people’s lives by improving their health and well-being. Establishing my own clinic allowed me to provide truly patient-centered care, focusing on prevention and long-term health. Seeing my patients achieve their health goals—whether managing a chronic condition, improving their well-being, or gaining confidence through weight management—fuels my passion for medicine every day.
About Me
For people that are hesitant to try therapy, what do you wish you could tell them?
Taking the first step toward better health can be intimidating, but you don’t have to do it alone. My approach is built on empathy, respect, and patient empowerment. I strive to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where patients feel heard and supported. Small changes can lead to meaningful improvements, and I am here to guide you through the process at your own pace.
About Me
What should people thinking about working with you, know about you?
I prioritize compassionate, patient-focused care that considers the whole person, not just their symptoms. I take the time to listen, educate, and involve my patients in their treatment decisions. Whether managing chronic conditions, preventive health, or weight management, I am committed to providing personalized care to help each patient reach their health goals.
About Me
How can you provide care remotely?
I offer virtual consultations, allowing patients to access high-quality, patient-centered care from the comfort of their homes. Through telemedicine, I can diagnose, manage chronic conditions, provide preventive care, and support weight management, including guidance on GLP-1 medications. My goal is to ensure that distance is never a barrier to achieving better health.
