Ep 2: Health at Every Size within Professional Training Settings: Medical and Mental Health Education

In this episode, I am talking to Tina Madani Kia. Tina is a doctor of medicine student and is currently in her 2nd year of medical school at the University of Alberta. We chat about Tina’s personal experience in medical school learning about frameworks and practices that are aligned with Health at Every Size and some differences that exist in the medical system; potential shifts to more patient-centred approaches in the medical community; comparisons highlighting key differences and similarities between medical education and mental health education; how the HAES principles can be beneficial in medical settings; and much more.
