Posted on July 15, 2013 in News

Recently the AMA made a groundbreaking decision when they determined obesity to be a disease. Many are hopeful that this ruling will open the way for obese patients to gain better health coverage and encourage physicians to offer more treatment options for the control and prevention of obesity. Dr. Rishi Ramlogan, medical director of Griffin Bariatrics, discusses the weight of this new ruling and how it can positively affect those who are suffering from obesity. Read on to learn more.
