141 | 6 Reasons Patients Struggle to Lose Weight

Описание: Patient-Centered Weight Management | Dr. Robert Kushner on the Six-Factor Questionnaire, GLP-1s, and Lifestyle Counseling 


“Eat less, move more” might be the fastest way to lose your patient’s trust, according my my guest Dr. Robert Kushner, a passionate doctor, educator, and researcher who has spent more than four decades improving care for people living with overweight and obesity.


Dr. Kushner shares the framework from his new book, Patient-Centered Weight Management: The Six-Factor Professional Program and Toolkit, including his 27-item Six-Factor Questionnaire designed to quickly identify what’s really driving a patient’s struggles (food environment, time, mindset, movement, self-talk and more). You’ll also hear how lifestyle counseling fits alongside today’s anti-obesity medications, including GLP-1 receptor agonists.


If you counsel patients on weight, obesity, nutrition, or behavior change, and you want a time-efficient system you can use in real clinic visits, you'll love this framework.
