Dear Patients!
We are delighted to inform you that a new specialty is now available at our clinic:
Dr. Gyöngy Andrea, our diabetologist, has successfully obtained a board certification in obesitology! As Dr. Gyöngy is also an internal medicine specialist, she approaches the treatment of obesity with a holistic perspective, offering comprehensive care for patients struggling with excess weight.
An obesity specialist (obesitologist) focuses on identifying the medical causes of obesity, diagnosing related health conditions, and developing personalized treatment plans. By evaluating the patient’s overall health and assessing any existing complications – such as insulin resistance, high blood pressure, or fatty liver – the specialist recommends the most effective treatment approach. The best results are usually achieved through lifestyle changes, often in collaboration with a dietitian.
Excess body fat – especially abdominal fat that increases waist circumference – is hormonally active and promotes chronic, low-grade inflammation throughout the body. This inflammatory state can pave the way for a wide range of chronic diseases. According to statistical data, the prevalence of chronic illnesses is significantly higher in people with obesity across all age groups. Compared to those with a normal or low body weight, obese individuals are 72% more likely to develop chronic conditions.
