Introduction
Obesity is one of the most pressing and complex health challenges of our time—yet its diagnosis and treatment remain inconsistently addressed across medical specialties. This conference brings together leading voices in medicine to close that gap.
Designed to promote collaboration across disciplines, this program offers a deep dive into the full spectrum of obesity care—from early identification and lifestyle interventions to advanced pharmacologic and surgical treatments. Participants will gain access to the latest evidence, innovations, and tools to navigate the evolving landscape of obesity and its metabolic complications.
Join us as we move beyond fragmented care and toward a unified, patient-centred approach to tackling obesity in the MENA region and beyond.
