March 4 is WORLD OBESITY DAY. Patients suffering from this disease struggle for many years with the desire to change their figure, often making unsuccessful attempts paid for with effort and growing frustration. These efforts very often lead to remission and even greater weight gain. Unfortunately, the devil is in the details, and there are many of them. 

Problems with the figure are only part of the disease. Obesity is a disease, it is chronic, it deepens over time, leads to physical and mental disability and takes away valuable years of healthy life. Data shows that every 4th adult Pole and every 5th child already struggles with it. 

In order to effectively help people struggling with this problem, NZOZ Twój Lekarz is opening an Obesity Treatment Clinic. The new facility will operate in the Clinic at ul. Zwycięska 41 in Wrocław and offer long-term and comprehensive support for patients who want to regain health and better well-being.

WHAT DOES OBESITY TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?

Obesity treatment is a process that requires an individual approach and comprehensive medical care. At the Obesity Treatment Clinic, patients will be treated by an experienced family medicine specialist, Dr. Marcin Roszkowski, who will help develop an effective treatment strategy tailored to the needs of each person. The clinic cooperates with psychologists, dieticians and surgeons specializing in bariatric treatment.

WHY SHOULD YOU USE THE HELP OF A SPECIALIST?

Obesity is not just an aesthetic problem – it is a disease in which excessive amounts of adipose tissue lead to the degradation of the body resulting in diagnosable diseases, the most common of which are: diabetes, atherosclerosis, hypertension, degenerative joint diseases as well as depression and malignant tumors. The catalog of related diseases already includes 260 items. The specialist will help you:
