Embracing Weight Neutral Healthcare
I’m Farah Myers, Family Nurse Practitioner with Cool Creek Family Health. One of the key aspects of a weight-neutral clinic like ours is the shift in focus from numbers to individuals. Many patients who live in a larger body are all too familiar with the narrative of “If you lost some weight, your back/knees/health issue wouldn’t be a problem.” This approach can be frustrating and dismissive, often ignoring the complexities of health and wellness.
