Collaborating Societies & Associations

Working with like-minded organizations is a central part of our mission to improve the understanding and treatment of obesity and to promote interdisciplinary, patient-centered care.

On this page, you will find links to specialist medical societies closely cooperating with the SMOB. These partnerships enable a valuable dialogue and exchange that enriches research and clinical practice.

Through our partner network, we offer our members access to a broader range of resources, knowledge, and support.
