Hyderabad 4th March
2025 : On World Obesity Day 2025, CARE Hospitals, Banjara Hills, emphasizes the
urgent need for a medical approach to obesity, recognizing its strong links to
diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. With this year’s theme, “Changing Systems,
Healthier Lives,” the hospital highlights that obesity is not just about
weight—it is a major driver of chronic illnesses that require structured,
expert-led intervention.
Dr. Venugopal Pareek, Sr. Consultant GI Laparoscopic,
Bariatric Surgeon & Robotic Surgeon at CARE Hospitals, stresses the deeper
health risks associated with obesity. “Obesity is not an isolated condition. It
alters metabolism, disrupts hormone balance, and accelerates the onset of
diseases like diabetes, cardiovascular issues and certain cancers. Addressing
it requires more than temporary solutions—it demands a medical approach that
ensures long-term health benefits.”
CARE Hospitals’
Bariatric and Metabolic Program is designed to treat obesity as a root cause
rather than just a symptom. The hospital’s specialists combine advanced
surgical techniques with metabolic care, personalized nutrition support, and
structured long-term follow-up, ensuring that patients experience not just
weight loss, but a significant reduction in their risks for obesity-related
diseases.
Biju Nair, Zonal COO,
CARE Hospitals,
reinforces the hospital’s vision for a science-led, patient-centered approach.
“Obesity treatment is not just about losing weight—it’s about preventing
serious health risks. Our goal is to help patients reclaim their health by
reducing their risks for diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, ensuring they
lead longer, healthier lives.”
As obesity continues
to be a rising global health crisis, CARE Hospitals remains committed to
delivering medically structured, outcome-driven solutions that go beyond
short-term fixes. By focusing on prevention, treatment, and long-term health
transformation, the hospital is redefining obesity care and its role in
combating the most pressing health challenges of our time.
