In this episode of NHE's Finger on the Pulse podcast our host, Saskia Hicking, speaks with Dr Giles Yeo,a Geneticist at Cambridge University and Dr Stephanie De Giorgio, a General Practitioner, about the stigmas that surround obesity and why we as a society suffer, not only physically, but also mentally with the affects of being overweight. Whilst our guests look to help raise awareness and educate health professionals on how to correctly treat and talk to obese patients, we delve into the solutions our healthcare system could adopt to abolish obesity stigma.
