ASDAH hosts Esther Tambe, MS, RD, CDN, CDCES for our May Education Event, Navigating Bias: Unpacking Weight Bias in Diabetes Care. Esther brings a wealth of experience as a dietitian and through her lived experiences to illuminate the ways weight bias impacts diabetes care.

Through a nuanced exploration, she will dissect the intersections of weight stigma and diabetes while educating how the HAES® Principles provide a revolutionary framework for personalized diabetes management, prioritizing holistic well-being over conventional weight-centric approaches. Attendees will gain insights into the pervasive nature of weight bias in healthcare, its roots in societal norms and stereotypes, and its harmful effects on patient-provider relationships and health outcomes. Whether you're a healthcare provider, educator, or advocate, this presentation promises invaluable insights into fostering a more compassionate and practical approach to diabetes care rooted in respect, dignity, and empowerment.
