SPECIALTIES

Obesity medicine

Obesity medicine is the specialty that deals with diagnosing, treating and providing long-term care for obesity and severe excess weight. Today, obesity is no longer just a question of appearance but a complex metabolic disease, which significantly increases the risk of heart and circulation problems, diabetes and musculoskeletal problems.

Overview

This specialty aims to help patients reach a healthy weight and keep it for the long term, through a scientifically based programme under medical supervision.

When should you see an obesity specialist?

The key to successful weight loss is a personal approach, as excess weight is often caused by hidden hormonal or metabolic disorders. Please come to us in the following cases:

  • Unsuccessful lifestyle change: If you do not lose weight despite diet and exercise, or the lost kilos soon come back (yo-yo effect).
  • High BMI: If your body mass index (BMI) is 30 or above.
  • Sudden weight gain: With no clear lifestyle change behind it.
  • Related conditions: If excess weight comes with high blood pressure, insulin resistance, joint pain or sleep apnoea.
  • Family history: If obesity and related metabolic disorders run in your family.

The key pillars of obesity treatment

Metabolic diagnostics Targeted investigation and medical treatment of underlying thyroid problems, insulin resistance or hormonal imbalances.

Personalised treatment plan We do not hand out standard diets: treatment includes dietary advice, an exercise plan suited to your fitness and, if needed, the latest medication support.

Managing and preventing complications Reducing inflammation caused by excess weight, protecting the heart and blood vessels, and minimising the risk of cancer.

How an obesity assessment works

Care starts with a comprehensive health assessment, where we look not only at the scales but at your overall health.

The steps:

  1. Detailed medical history: We discuss previous weight-loss attempts, eating habits, stress factors and sleep quality.
  2. Body composition analysis: We measure the proportion of fat tissue, muscle mass and visceral fat, which gives a more accurate picture than body weight alone.
  3. Laboratory and diagnostic tests: We check your blood sugar and insulin levels, cholesterol, liver function and hormones.
  4. Setting goals together: We put together a realistic and sustainable weight-loss schedule.

Throughout treatment we provide ongoing medical check-ups and motivational support, so you never feel alone in the process.

How should you prepare for the examination?

Please bring your most recent lab results (if you have any less than 3 months old), and a list of any medicines and supplements you take.
