I used to do patient care in this area, pre GLP-1, and am extremely glad to see these medications taking off and displacing surgery. I wouldn't call the surgical interventions a scam, but their risks have routinely been understated and as a result the arguments for them overstated. Something like GLP-1 medication is exactly what was needed. The whole area needed to move to something more like how depression is treated, with psychological behavioral therapy and medication being frontline, and surgery only being reserved for rare very high risk cases of last resort. |
