Course Description
Addressing obesity in primary care remains a significant challenge, despite established evidence-based strategies and the introduction of new anti-obesity medications. Obstacles such as weight bias, stigma, and limited patient engagement in shared decision-making complicate effective weight management. With the growing array of therapeutic options for obesity, it is crucial for clinicians to adopt shared decision-making practices to improve treatment adherence, support patient goals, and foster holistic, patient-centered care.

This series, in collaboration with local AAFP Chapter meetings, equips learners with evidence-based approaches to screening, diagnosing, and treating obesity. Gain practical strategies for initiating weight management conversations with patients, incorporating shared decision-making to personalize treatment goals.
