Patient-clinician communication about weight loss

Abstract:
The worldwide prevalence of obesity has more than doubled between 1990 and 2022, with more than 890 million adults living with obesity in 2022. International guidelines recommend that clinicians offer weight loss support to their patients living with obesity, and effective communication from clinicians is associated with patient weight loss. Clinicians and patients think these conversations are important, and clinicians who do not specialize in treating obesity want to know how to introduce and offer support and treatment for weight loss.
