Learn all the things you didn't know about childhood obesity from Evan Nadler, MD, who co-directed the nation's largest childhood obesity practice at Children's National in Washington, DC, for 20 years.

Dr. Nadler brings a unique, non-judgmental approach to what he considers a fundamentally different disease from adult obesity.

Key Topics Covered:

The Science Behind Childhood Obesity

  • Why childhood obesity differs dramatically from adult obesity in both cause and progression
  • The role of genetics, epigenetics, and prenatal factors in early-onset weight gain
  • How obesity-related diseases advance more aggressively in children

Breaking Down Blame and Stigma

  • Why neither children nor parents should be blamed for childhood obesity
  • The minimal role of behavioral factors in pediatric cases
  • How genetic predisposition often overrides environmental influences

Treatment Approaches and Outcomes

  • Why children show better long-term outcomes from surgical intervention than adults
  • The importance of treatment-agnostic care and mental health support

Evan Nadler, MD, MBA, is the past Co-Director of the Children's National Obesity Institute, built & directed the nation's largest pediatric weight management program by nearly twofold, treating thousands of children and adolescents with obesity.
He & his partners recently opened ProCare TeleHealth, "The country's first pediatric-only telehealth weight management practice".
