It was a privilege to sit down with from . During our discussion, we addressed several key topics in modern medicine, with obesity emerging as one of the most critical challenges for a foregut surgeon.

In Asia, obesity rates are rising, but as Ian noted, public awareness is also increasing. This has led many individuals to seek medical advice and professional help to manage the condition.

For a foregut surgeon, this shift means encountering a growing number of patients who are looking for solutions ranging from medication to surgical intervention. Whether through laparoscopic or endoscopic surgery, the goal remains the same: to effectively reduce the medical problems that arise from obesity.

Our conversation highlighted the importance of adapting to these trends and ensuring that patients have access to the right medical expertise and surgical options. Thank you, Ian, for your insights and for the important work you continue to lead at HKU.
