A member asked:
Weight management clinics, do doctors think they are a waste of money?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Some weight loss programs as administered by physicians are as successful as surgery. Understand that even if one chooses surgery for weight loss there is still a modified diet after the operation.
