Full Topic Description

Please join us for a presentation and interactive case discussion focused on the latest insights about how obesity impacts the cardiometabolic, liver, and kidney health of your patients.

We will explore why obesity treatment is about so much more than weight reduction.

Regardless of your specialty, this event will address the health needs of many of your patients. It will help you connect the dots about how visceral fat and ectopic fat in the liver, kidneys, pancreas, and heart cause multiple chronic conditions and how targeted therapy can improve health and reduce disease risk.

We will review the new AHA Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) Syndrome Guidelines, discuss why they are relevant, and learn how to apply them in your primary & specialty care practice, with the goal of improving patient outcomes.

Registration is limited to 60 attendees, so register now:
