If you understand that obesity medicine is at the core of a rational and effective approach to chronic disease management, it becomes clear that obesity medicine needs to be a core competency of family medicine.
Yet that is not enough. To make this knowledge effective you need funding to support structured supports around the family physician and the patient: behaviour change and lifestyle programs, access to effective pharmacologic therapies, and support for bariatric surgery.

Youโre going to need your BMA/GMC number & 2 minutes.
If you think you should have more SPA & should be contractual, PAโs should be shorter, the option for PAโs>10 to count toward your pension, a right to partial retirement & further journey on pay

Aviation like medicine is a decision, rich safety critical environment, where wrong decisions and burnout cost lives. In aviation DCC (flying time 100 hrs per month) vs SPA (the rest of the 190 hrs max per month) = roughly 5 DCC and 5 SPA per week. BMA indicative ballot vote now.

Risk happens slowly.
Then all at once.
Everyone wishes they bought fire insurance when their house is on fire.
The best time to buy insurance is long before the prospect of a fire.
Cardiovascular risk is the same.
Don't wait for a fire.
