Show Notes

Livehealthy editor Ann Marie McQueen speaks to Dr Javed Raza, a staff physician in the Bariatric Disease Institute at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi. Doctors at the institute have seen an increase in the number of patients seeking medical and surgical treatments for weight loss over the last year. They performed 450 bariatric surgeries in 2020 — with the youngest patient being just 14. Dr Raza talks about the kind of obesity and associated problems that lead people to consider bariatric surgery, what options are available for them when they do, and about how the institute takes a holistic approach with patients to set them up for success.
