Against the backdrop of the obesity pandemic, treating obesity and reducing its complications is a major health challenge. The revolution in the new treatments of obesity represents a powerful tool to meet this challenge with less risk. As a result, the demand for overinvested medications has exploded. The impatience of concerned people to receive such treatments jeopardizes the therapeutic relationship. To find a way out of this predicament, the interdisciplinary team of the Therapeutic Patient Education Unit at the University Hospitals of Geneva has implemented a new therapeutic program for obesity management. It is based on peer sharing, a motivational approach, reflection on the skills to develop to initiate medication, and key learnings, and aims for sustained commitment to behavior change to achieve long-term weight loss.
