Obese people are victims of hostile attitudes and behaviour that stigmatise them because of their physical appearance. If this grossophobia is already well described at the socio-professional level, it is also present in the world of health care, both by the inappropriate equipment and by the negative attitude of healthcare professionals. This tends to distance obese patients from care and isolate them further. However, solutions exist to combat this discrimination.
肥胖者是敌意态度和行为的受害者，这些态度和行为因其外貌而使他们受到污名化。如果说这种对肥胖的厌恶在社会职业层面已经有了充分的描述，那么它在医疗保健领域也同样存在，这体现在设备不合适以及医护人员的消极态度上。这往往会使肥胖患者远离医疗保健，进一步将他们孤立起来。然而，存在应对这种歧视的解决办法。
