The American Society of Bariatric Physicians (ASBP) is a medical professional association for physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants who are focused on the treatment and management of overweight and obese patients and their related conditions and co-morbidities.

The ASBP is the primary source for clinical education and training for the non-surgical medical management of obesity.

Physician supervision is necessary to detect and treat weight-related medical conditions. A program supervised by a physician who is a member of the ASBP and who has completed specialized training in bariatric medicine, offers a comprehensive and effective approach to maximizing overall health and reversing co-morbidities. Learn more about how joining the ASBP can help improve your practice and help you more effectively treat overweight and obese patients by reviewing the ASBP Membership Benefits.
