From Insight to Action: Practical Strategies to Improve Outcomes in Patients with Obesity and IMIDs

In this cross-specialty episode of our RhAPP, GHAPP, MAPP and SDPA collaborative series, leading APPs from dermatology, gastroenterology, rheumatology, and metabolic medicine break down real-world strategies to improve outcomes for patients living with both obesity and immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). Building on earlier discussions about epidemiology and pathophysiology, this conversation focuses on practical, clinic-ready approaches—from shared decision-making and compassionate patient communication to interdisciplinary coordination, GLP-1 utilization, and lifestyle guidance. Learn how APPs across specialties are uniting to reduce systemic inflammation, personalize care, and translate education into meaningful action for patients with obesity and IMIDs.
