Approach to care

  • What does it look like for you to provide care to patients in larger bodies? How is, or isn’t, your approach different from how you care for patients in smaller bodies? If you work with children, how is or isn’t your approach different when working with children?

    (un-bold answers)

  • What is your perspective on how weight is or is not related to health?

  • Finish this sentence: “Fat people are…” 

  • How do you, your clinic, and the healthcare system you work in use BMI (i.e BMI cutoffs for accessing certain services, BMI on charts and printouts, etc)? Is this flexible?

  • If a patient declines to be weighed, how do you and/or your staff proceed?

  • If a patient declines to discuss weight loss, nutrition, and/or exercise, how do you proceed?

  • What does the physical accessibility of your office space look like? What kinds of accommodations are present for people in larger bodies? Are there things you wish were in place that are currently not? 

  • What do you do to allow fat people to feel comfortable and welcome in your office? 

  • If you’d like to use this space to talk about any identities (gender, race, size, sexuality, etc.) you hold and how this relates to your care, please do so.
