Presenter: Sarah H. Finn, MD
Healthy nutrition and increased movement are important to improve metabolic health; however, for patients with obesity, sustained weight loss is 2-5% of total body weight. Anti-obesity medications, in addition to lifestyle changes, can lead to weight loss of 5-20% of total body weight.
There are more tools for managing obesity and there is a lot of misinformation about this treatment in our society.
In this session, Dr. Finn will provide up-to-date knowledge for individuals to navigate obesity as a disease and improve clinical staff knowledge on treatment for obesity.
