January 2018: Obesity & Weight Loss


Picture
Thank you to Dr. Scott Isaacs of Atlanta Endocrine Associates. Dr. Isaacs is one of just 10% of all endocrinologists that is also board certified in Bariatrics, the branch of medicine that deals with the causes, prevention, and treatment of obesity. Dr. Isaacs discussed the changing attitude toward obesity in the medical community, including just a rethinking of the semantics: i.e. "people with obesity" as opposed to "obese people."  Obesity is a disease and should be treated as such.​
