In this episode, Dr. Anderson shares a practical, patient-first approach for engaging overweight and obese patients without stigma—and with results. We’ll cover his language and mindset framework, clinical guardrails for timing surgery, and the team-based protocol he uses to help patients make progress before and after procedures. We’ll also explore how virtual lifestyle health programs can extend the clinic, improve readiness and recovery, and reduce frustrating “ping-pong” referrals—while keeping the surgeon focused on surgery and outcomes.
