Doctors urged to be 'gateway' for obesity tests, treatments

Physicians should screen all adult patients for obesity during office visits and either refer obese patients to comprehensive weight-management programs or offer them one, says the U.S. Preventive Services Task Forcein new recommendations announced Monday.

"This is the same task force that grabbed headlines this month by suggesting that healthy postmenopausal women not take daily low doses of vitamin D and calcium to prevent bone fractures. It also advised against PSA (prostate-specific antigen) tests to screen healthy men and told women 50-74 to have a mammogram every other year, not annually."
