In this episode we explore the important and often misunderstood health challenge of obesity with Ken Clare, from Obesity UK and the Obesity Institute at Leeds Beckett University. Ken brings a unique perspective—not only as a former healthcare professional but also as someone who has personally navigated the complexities of weight management. We look at the realities of living with obesity, the stigma surrounding it, and the latest innovations in treatment, including the role of new anti-obesity medications. Plus, Ken shares his personal journey and why he believes compassionate, patient-centred care is crucial for change.
