[quote=Anonymous]Doctors hate fat. It's the way they are trained: surgeons don't like operating on fat people, PCP see it as a precursor to diabetes, stroke, etc. Has about as much stigma as smoking. Sorry OP that you felt Children's was being insensitive but anyone who is obese will encounter the same no matter what issue they go to the hospital for. Yes, if you are obese and go to the hospital for your appendix, broken leg, whatever, they will also the fact that you are obese. It's a relevant health issue.[/quote]
