Eating Disorders - Bonus episode - The Nuts and Bolts of the Medical Aspects with Andrea Logan; What Happens in an Eating DIsorders Clinic; Recent Trends During COVID; The Medical Complications of Eating Disorders and How They are Treated

This bonus episode follows our conversation last week with Dr Anita Federici. We take a more in-depth look at the medical issues associated with eating disorders with Andrea Logan, a Nurse Practitioner on the front lines of the pandemic-related eating disorder surge. We discuss the recent trends observed by Andrea and her team, and how the team works together with the patient and their family to address an eating disorder and the medical complications associated with it. Eating disorders are potentially life-threatening, but with proper treatment they can be overcome. Please note: this episode is for general information only and does not substitute for medical advice from your health care provider. If you or someone you know is struggling with disordered eating - please get help (see show notes for links).
