A Partnership to a Healthier You: The Role of Your PCP in Managing the Chronic Disease of Obesity

It can be scary to talk to your Primary Care Physician (PCP) if you’re trying to manage your weight and health. What if they don’t agree with the approach you’re taking? How can you make sure your general health stays a priority? Your PCP can be your alley in your journey, providing tools, resources and support.

In this insightful session, hear obesity medicine physician Adam Tsai, MD, give a PCP’s perspective on working with patients in a clinical setting to ensure optimal health while not neglecting their efforts to manage their weight. PLUS – hear from a patient, too as they show us how to bridge the patient/PCP relationship together.
