Why Obesity Medicine Specialists are Needed by Patients Affected by Obesity & Overweight
Dr. Ethan Lazarus invited a collection of physicians to think about the influence of weight bias and the stigmatization of obese people at the Spring Obesity Conference of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians this past spring. In his talk, he reviewed the ways people are treated differently due to their weight, and presented the idea that obesity medicine doctors should become a primary aspect of the health and wellness equation.
