Nearly 40% of adults in the U.S. are living with obesity—a complex, chronic condition that affects far more than just weight. Linked to over 200 health issues, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, and even certain cancers, obesity plays a major role in overall health and longevity. 

In this episode of Healthy YOU, host Frankye Myers sits down with Dr. Sheba Mohsin, a board-certified family medicine physician at Riverside Williamsburg Family Medicine, to explore the real-life impact of obesity, why it's more than a number on the scale, and how compassionate, evidence-based care can support lasting change.
