Common questions

How are the obesity and weight doctors in Canada vetted?

Each provider's license is verified against the national registry, board certifications are recorded, their public presence is screened by a person, and they sign a dated attestation that they follow the current society guidelines for the conditions they treat. Attestations renew every year and a random sample is audited monthly.

Do you show patient reviews or star ratings?

No. Ratings are easy to manipulate and say little about whether care follows the evidence. Every card shows facts you can check instead: license verified, board certifications, attestation date, and screening date.

Can I see a obesity and weight doctor in Canada by telemedicine?

Telemedicine providers must be licensed in the state where you are located during the visit. Use the telemedicine filter in search to see who is licensed for your state.

Are these listings paid?

Yes. Providers pay a monthly subscription to be listed after they pass verification. Payment never changes who passes review or how organic results are ordered. Featured placement is always labeled.

How do I know a obesity and weight doctor follows the guidelines?

Ask them. A guideline-based obesity and weight doctor can tell you which society guideline they follow and why each treatment is recommended. Our guideline hubs explain in plain language what good care looks like for each condition, including red flags like supplements or compounded drugs sold as treatment.
