The social stigma associated with overweight and obesity can affect career prospects and self-confidence (NICE)
Do you struggle to use the word obesity with patients?
Can your/our weight make a difference in what patients think?
How do you feel about body weight?
Having those difficult conversations with patients can be, well, difficult.
Are your patients asking for the ‘jab’ as a ‘quick-fix’ weight loss solution?
Would you like to better support them in managing their expectations of semaglutide drugs?

- Learn more about the Adult Weight Management Service in Richmond and Wandsworth, tier services, referral criteria and pathways
- Come and meet the Enable weight management team – understand the referral pathway and take part in a mini-taster session
