Today, I have an excerpt from a presentation by Dr. Matthew Carmody from a United Kingdom lipedema training program held in June 2022. Dr. Carmody is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School and a Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine. He recently retired from his practice as an Internal Medicine practitioner to focus on lipedema and obesity medicine. In this excerpt, Dr. Carmody talks about the key ingredients of a successful doctor-patient relationship are support, compassion, and trusting the inner wisdom of both the patient and the doctor.
