478-Beyond GLP-1: What Informed Consent for GLP-1 Actually Looks Like with Dr. Michelle Tubman

Thursday, June 25, 2026Stephanie Dodier

Nobody screens you for disordered eating before prescribing a GLP-1. That is not an accident. It is a gap in the entire informed consent process, and it is the subject of this conversation.


I talk with Dr. Michelle Tubman, an emergency physician, about what informed consent for GLP-1 medications should actually include and rarely does.


In this episode you will learn:

  • What Michelle sees in the emergency room after patients start GLP-1 medications
  • Why most people never connect their symptoms back to the medication
  • What the two-year Ozempic study actually found about weight regain
  • Why disordered eating screening is not required before a GLP-1 prescription
  • What true informed consent would require, modeled on how oncologists handle chemotherapy
