New! — AACE Journey for Patients with Obesity

As you know, obesity is a complex disease, and many patients struggle with the dizzying array of information online from countless websites that are inaccurate and unhelpful.

Great news: The endocrine experts at AACE have created the AACE Journey for Patients with Obesity.

This incredible new resource is derived from the AACE 2023 Obesity Stigma and Bias Consensus Statement and the AACE 2016 Clinical Practice Guideline and Algorithm for Medical Care of Patients with Obesity to ensure clinical accuracy. It was also reviewed by the Obesity Action Coalition, a leading patient advocacy organization.

The AACE Journey for Patients with Obesity will provide your patients with:

• Accurate, science-based information about obesity that is presented in a very “patient-friendly,” common-language manner
• Answers to questions about obesity diagnosis, screening, and treatment options
• A truly trustworthy resource you can share with them

Give your patients the reliable obesity resource they need by pointing them to the AACE Journey for Patients with Obesity.
