Weight Bias in Type 2 Diabetes

In this episode of Beyond the Numbers, we explore the sensitive but important topic of weight bias. For people with type 2  diabetes, and excess weight, their experience with seeking care can often involve experiences  of weight bias and weight stigma. We will discuss how these biases can impact a person’s  treatment journey and even treatment outcomes.  This podcast is intended for healthcare professional audiences only.
