ABOUT THE EVENING

This is not another weight loss seminar.

If you’ve been living with obesity and wondering what your real options are, this evening was designed for you.

It’s an honest, expert-led conversation about why obesity is recognised as a chronic medical condition, the treatment pathways available, and what long-term care and support involve. No clinic rooms and no pressure, just a comfortable hotel setting, a shared meal and time to ask what you’ve been wondering.

Hosted by

Dr Siva Gounder and the Perth Weight Loss Clinic care team

Dr Gounder is a Specialist General Surgeon (FRACS) whose practice focuses on bariatric and metabolic surgery.

What You'll Experience

Four parts, one table.

Lived experience, in their own words

Hear from people who have been through the process: the questions they had, what preparation and recovery involved, and what ongoing care looks like day to day.

Surgical and medical pathways, explained

Dr Gounder walks through surgical and non-surgical medical options: who each may suit, what the evidence says, the risks to weigh, and the common misconceptions.

Nutrition and movement that last

Our dietitian and exercise physiologist share practical, sustainable guidance for before and after treatment, at a pace that suits you. No intimidation.

Open Q&A and dinner

Ask anything, out loud or anonymously when you book. Then stay for dinner and conversation with others asking the same questions you are.
