Internal medicine-pediatric physician Chrissie Ott discusses her article "When the pediatrician is the parent: a personal reckoning with childhood obesity." Chrissie shares the deeply personal story of her own child's struggles with weight, the bullying and shame that compounded them, and the tension she felt balancing her medical knowledge with her role as a parent. She explains how reframing obesity as a relapsing, remitting neurobehavioral metabolic disease shifted her perspective, leading to a decision to pursue GLP-1 therapy in addition to lifestyle support. Chrissie candidly describes the relief of moving from blame to action, the transformation in her child's health and self-esteem, and her own decision to pursue board certification in obesity medicine. Listeners will learn about the challenges of navigating childhood obesity compassionately, the evolving role of medical treatment, and the importance of protecting dignity and autonomy while supporting kids in larger bodies.
