Weight Bias in Healthcare?

Wanted to share this with my OH pals. Hoping that by sharing our stories it will help put an end to incidences of weight bias in healthcare... it's to me the worst because they should know better "do no harm" and all that and it's truly potentially deadly... if it makes you avoid going back.

Do you have an appalling experience of dealing with a weight-biased healthcare professional? Would you share it with a reporter working on a high-profile story about weight bias in healthcare? I believe connecting weight bias in healthcare to the impact it has on real people will take us a long way toward putting an end to it. Our stories are POWERFUL! If you'd be willing to share yours and help raise awareness please contact: Ted Kyle [email protected]

Thanks to anyone willing to share,
