Few areas of healthcare have changed as rapidly over the past three years as obesity medicine.
With medications such as semaglutide and tirzepatide transforming the conversation around obesity, Bruce revisits this insightful discussion with Professor Donal O’Shea and dietitian Aoife Hearne.
Rather than focusing solely on medication, this episode explores the biology of obesity, the importance of compassion in clinical practice, and why understanding obesity as a chronic disease changes how we think about prevention, treatment and long-term support.
The treatments may have evolved, but the need for evidence-based, person-centred care has not.
This episode forms part of the ISESA Podcast Summer Series: Exercise Beyond Sport – three conversations exploring the growing role of sport and exercise science within healthcare.
