Beyond Willpower: Medical Solutions For Obesity


Listen Later

Join Dr. Tom Rogers on this week's episode of The Common Sense MD as he tackles one of the most pressing and often misunderstood health issues of our time: obesity. Dr. Rogers explores why obesity is now widely recognized as a disease—and not simply a matter of willpower. Drawing from recent medical research and decades of clinical experience, he breaks down the impact of weight bias, the limitations of traditional diets, and the life-changing potential of revolutionary new medications like GLP-1s and GIPs.

Discover why these treatments are being hailed as the greatest medical breakthrough of the 21st century, how they're changing lives, and why addressing the root causes of obesity can transform a patient’s overall health. Dr. Rogers also shares candid thoughts on the importance of compassion in medical practice, the social stigma around obesity, and the future of fat acceptance and weight loss therapy.

Whether you’re a healthcare professional, someone struggling with weight, or simply want to understand more about this major health issue, this episode cuts through the noise with clear, actionable advice. Tune in and learn why treating obesity is about so much more than just the numbers on a scale.
