In this episode, we sit down with the board of PAs in Obesity Medicine (PAOM) for a candid, practice-focused conversation on elevating obesity care in primary care. From reframing obesity as a chronic disease to integrating evidence-based treatments into busy clinics, our guests share real-world insights, clinical pearls, and strategies PAs can use today. Whether you’re new to obesity medicine or looking to deepen your impact, this episode offers a forward-looking look at how PAs are leading the future of comprehensive, compassionate obesity care.
