Dr. Yembe is a very passionate philanthropist who founded the Omer Yembe Foundation responsible for bringing healthcare to approximately 4,000 poverty stricken individuals in rural Cameroon, Africa, since 2015. This was accomplished through medical mission trips and by establishing a small rural clinic/short stay hospital facility. Her education scholarships sponsored approximately 100 orphan children. Sadly, her efforts have abruptly paused due to Africa’s civil unrest causing inaccessibility for visiting patrons.

Throughout her life, Dr. Yembe struggled with obesity. Born at almost 10 pounds, she grew up overweight and into an obese adult. She was mocked and bullied as a child, insecure and self-conscious as an adult. She tried every diet available to her. But when the results that were “guaranteed” did not happen, she became frustrated, gave up and gained even more weight. In her early 30s, along came her two beautiful daughters and the excess baby weight just stuck.

January 26th 2010, her life was changed forever. She lost her youngest brother and amidst of tears of anguish, she begged God never to allow her dad to burry another child. So she finally made up her mind to loose the weight for good. She followed all the healthy diets and exercises. That didn’t work so she hired a personal trainer. After no results, she changed personal trainers, but still kept struggling. Seven years later and after two marathons, many half marathons, multiple 5Ks, and four personal trainers, she is finally back at her starting weight. By this time, she had crossed the age of fifty and Mrs. Menopause was here. Dr. Yembe said, “It seemed like everything slowed down”.

Not the one to give up, she changed plans and dug deep into the “why’s and how’s” of weight loss. That was when she realized that many of the things that she thought were the right things were actually the wrong things. She applied all the tips and strategies that she had learned over the past nine years and finally, it worked. She has basically demystified, debunked and condensed all that she learned about weight loss into a SIX STEP METHOD called The EVOLVE Method. The way she coached others on weight loss also had to  change. It didn’t matter whether they were male, female, young or old, those who were willing to put in the work, saw dramatic success.

Dr. Yembe’s passion is to help individuals achieve optimal health and embark on a journey of self discovery by applying simple & effective lifestyle solutions learned from her personal and professional experience.
