Implementing the AGA Obesity Guide

Obese patients need a multidisciplinary approach to achieve a healthy weight. AGA understands the importance of embracing obesity as a chronic, relapsing disease, and supports a multidisciplinary approach to the management of obesity. AGA believes that gastroenterologists are in a unique position to manage the care team for these patients. In this webinar, Andres Acosta, MD, PhD, assistant professor in medicine, Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research, division of gastroenterology and hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, and Sarah Streett, MD, clinical associate professor and director of IBD, Stanford University School of Medicine, CA, discuss the AGA Obesity Guide and how GIs can begin to implement the program in their practice. The “POWER: Practice Guide on Obesity and Weight Management, Education and Resources" paper provides gastroenterologists with a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary process to guide and personalize innovative obesity care for safe and effective weight management.
