A new obesity clinic has opened in Canberra, to tackle one of the region’s biggest health concerns, according to the ABC.
With almost one in three ACT adults and one in four Year Six children overweight or obese, the Obesity Management Service will assist by offering consultations with a range of medical professionals.
Services are available at the Belconnen Community Health Centre and according to Katy Gallagher are the first of their kind in Canberra.
Previously, these services were only available through private practise.
