摘要

In Mexico, obesity affects more than 75% of adults, and 36% of the child population. It has the first place worldwide in childhood obesity, and the second in adults. In 2023 the High Specialty Regional Hospital of Ixtapaluca attended 3,887 obesity patients. The geographical region of influence of the Hospital are four states (Mexico, Hidalgo, Puebla, Tlaxcala), and the East of Mexico City; and there is no specialized public clinic to treat obesity. Therefore, the Hospital is interested in having a bariatric clinic among the medical services it offers.
