“As a nurse practitioner in obesity medicine, I generally enjoyed Everyday Wellness UNTIL the episode with Calley Means. It was chock full of stereotypes, way over the top generalizations and a CLEAR LACK of understanding the average patient with obesity. It was so off putting and offensive I finally turned it off. Not everyone who specializes in obesity is funded by Novo Nordisk. Such an extreme point of view. My husband attended UCSF medical school and it was NOT taught to students that Americans are helpless and can’t give up their habits, nor do i believe for one second that Stanford is teaching this. I challenge the host and her guest to actually start working with especially the pediatric population with obesity before you speak how the guidelines released by the APA got it wrong. Terrible show with misinformation, especially with an educated Cynthia saying “we don’t know the long term effects of the GLP-1s”…….yes we do. Please do the research before you try to educate. Just terrible .”
