Abstract
This review focuses on communication about weight-related issues with patients with obesity in general practice. Primary care providers still lack knowledge and tools to address and communicate about the topic of weight and weight-related issues - with focus on minimizing stigmatization and a person centered approach. A few communication tools on the topic have been developed but it seems that the use of those is limited, suggesting an urgent need for making a fast, easy and simple tool for the use in general practice.
