      As a parent struggling with obesity, possibly due to genetics, what treatment options are available if diet and exercise aren’t enough?

        My mum had obesity and was advised to consider surgery because her weight was affecting her health and she was at higher risk of developing diabetes. We consulted Dr Shanker, a Bariatric Surgeon in Singapore, and he recommended surgery based on her condition. She had a sleeve gastrectomy, which helped with significant weight loss and managing her weight better.
