Access to Multidisciplinary Care for Pediatric Weight Management: Exploring Perspectives of the Health Care Team within Canada and the United States.

Conclusions: Health care providers from Canada and the United States reported multiple societal, organizational, service, and family-level barriers to accessing multidisciplinary pediatric weight management care. Proposed solutions suggest that service providers can play a key role alongside families to improve access to appropriate care. Further research is needed to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of proposed solutions. PMID: 31099587 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
