Session Two: "The Fat Doctor" Podcast Discussion

-

Join us to discuss and debrief "The Fat Doctor: Weight Stigma in Healthcare." As a heads up, this episode discusses diabetes, cancer death, and instances of mistreatment of patients by healthcare providers. 


This episode is not a perfect example of a discussion weight stigma - rather, we selected it as a place to start when discussing weight stigma and weight neutral care. Please bring your critiques! Looking forward to a lively discussion!
