Examining the Harmful Implications of the AAP's Guidelines on Weight Loss Medication and Surgery for Children with Jessica Setnick, MS, RD, CEDRD-S Understanding Disordered Eating

    • Mental Health

Join legend Jessica Setnick and me in a conversation discussing the recent AAP guidelines. The AAP has suggested weight loss medication as young as 12 and weight loss surgery as young as 13 for children they deem "obese." Naturally, as eating disorder clinicians, we'll have a reaction or two to that. Jessica never disappoints, she's highly entertaining and delivers really important information for you to become a more informed patient.
