Welcome to the SMEDA website!

The Southwest Michigan Eating Disorders Association (founded as the Kalamazoo Eating Disorders Professional Coalition) is a group of therapists, nutritionists, social workers, educators, and physicians experienced in the treatment of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, and other eating disorders.  We have come together to provide team-based treatment for patients with eating disorders in Southwest Lower Michigan, educate the people of our community and region about eating disorders, and educate ourselves and other professionals in our community on how to recognize and treat patients with eating disorders.

Monthly Meetings
SMEDA meets each month at the Western Michigan University School of Medicine, on the WMU campus in Kalamazoo, or at one of the School's partner hospitals.  We invite professionals involved in the care and treatment of patients with eating disorders to join us.  For more information, please click here or contact Vinay Reddy, MD by E-mail (vinay dot reddy at med dot wmich dot edu).
