GP Education Series 2024: A Comprehensive Review of Obesity and Systemic Disease

Between May and September 2024, MedSurg Weight Loss co-hosted a GP Education Series with St Vincent’s Private Hospital Northside — delivering a structured overview of obesity’s impact on systemic disease and current intervention strategies.

The workshop series covered obesity and its related complications, including:

  • Type II diabetes and metabolic syndrome
  • Cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease
  • Obesity-related cancer and orthopaedics
  • Respiratory disease and bariatric anaesthesia

 

Each monthly session was RACGP endorsed for CPD hours and Reviewing Performance points — supporting clinician professional development.

Participants gained actionable insights into evidence-based clinical management and interdisciplinary care — reinforcing MedSurg’s commitment to high-quality medical education.
