Continuity of care in obesity clinical care

Obesity is a chronic, multifactorial and relapsing disease with a great impact on public health. Due to its high prevalence and complications, it is essential to coordinate clinical care in different health care settings in order to improve the clinical evaluation and treatment of people with obesity and to optimize the use of health care resources. This document, prepared by experts from the Spanish Society of Endocrinology and Nutrition (SEEN), the Spanish Society of Primary Care Physicians (SEMERGEN), the Spanish Society of Family and Community Medicine (semFYC) and the Spanish Society of General Practitioners (SEMG) proposes a comprehensive clinical approach to obesity, based on effective coordination between Primary Care and Endocrinology and Nutrition Departments.
