On episode 488 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews Thomas George, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, NASM-CPT, a family nurse practitioner specializing in the treatment of obesity. In the course of their conversation, Keith and Dr. George discuss obesity as a chronic disease of pandemic proportions, current treatment strategies, the concept of "food noise", the latest scientific evidence, and much more.

Excellent resources shared by Dr. George include the Consensus Statement on Obesity as a Disease by the Stop Obesity Alliance; the consensus statement by the the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology; an informative article about "food noise"; the Obesity Action Coalition, and the Obesity Medicine Association.

Dr. Thomas George is a family nurse practitioner and assistant professor at Frontier Nursing University, and the Clinic Director and obesity specialist and business consultant for Wellspring Weight and Wellness, a new startup in rural SE Idaho.

Dr. George chairs the Obesity Medicine Association's CME Committee, and holds a certificate and advanced education in obesity medicine from the Obesity Medicine Association, and a certificate in primary care obesity management from the Obesity Society. He is a certified personal trainer and weight loss specialist with the National Academy of Sports Medicine, and he himself is a person living with obesity.
