The Fat Doctor Podcast Why the American Academy of Pediatrics is WRONG (Part 3)
There is a CONTENT WARNING for stigmatizing language, medical weight stigma and medical trauma. Asher concluded this three part series on the recently published American Academy of Pedicatrics (AAP) guidelines on the management of childhood & adolescent oB*siTy, this time considering if the guidelines need to exist in the first place and what it's really all about.
More about the show:
How would you react if someone told you that most of what we are taught to believe about healthy bodies is a lie? How would you feel if that person was a medical doctor with over 20 years experience treating patients and seeing the harm caused by all this misinformation?
In series 2 of their podcast, Dr Asher Larmie, an experienced General Practitioner and self-styled Fat Doctor, talks all things related to weight stigma, fatphobia and fat liberation. They will be joined by several regular guests as well as guests from throughout the fat activism sphere.
They tackles the various ways in which these laws contribute to weight stigma and fat oppression through passionate, unfiltered conversations with guest experts, colleagues and friends. In order to really tackle weight stigma, Asher believes that you must first challenge society's definition of health, it's relationship with disease, and why fat has become public enemy number one.
Whether you're a person affected by weight stigma, a healthcare professional, a concerned parent or an ally who shares our view that people in larger bodies deserve better, Dr. Larmie and the team at 'The Fat Doctor Podcast' welcomes you into their inner circle
