Both the American Medical Association and American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE) now recognize obesity as a disease characterized by multiple pathophysiologic aspects that require a range of interventions for treatment and prevention. As if this weren t challenging enough, patients with obesity from many underserved communities have an even greater hurdle: how to receive equitable care when so many factors, including social determinants of health, are stacked against them. For clinicians, step one is helping patients to realize their difficulty with losing weight and keeping it off is not their fault from being lazy or undisciplined. Indeed, several pathophysiologic/hormonal forces within an individual s body conspire to regain any weight loss that may have been achieved. Step 2 is for clinicians to dig deep and reflect on potential personal and/or institutional biases that negatively impact the care they provide. And step 3 is to partner with patients to help them overcome barriers to receiving and adhering to equitable, evidence-based care. In this installment of the popular CMEO podcast series on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), Drs. Peek, Stanford, and Noble discuss the influence of implicit bias, health disparities, and health inequities on the quality of care for patients with obesity. Practical approaches to self-reflection, recognition of potential bias, and positive action are explored.
