Bariatric fellow at North Shore Hospital, surgeon Scott Whiting is advocating for publically funded bariatric surgery for those who cannot afford it, but warns it's no short cut for managing weight-loss long term. 

Scott recently gave a talk at the National Dieticians conference about interventional weight loss, and is currently attending the ANZMOS Conference in Melbourne, where long term outcomes of bariatric surgery and most effective follow up care are being discussed.
