Amazon is being clever. We'll see if it's any more than that. But I saw news that Jeffrey Bezos's latest move for his empire is One Medical, and they are putting out propaganda about how comfortable visits to their doctor's offices will be, with photos of waiting rooms with wide and plush chairs. Again, whether this translates to any more evidence-based care for adipose patients than elsewhere is yet to be seen.
I agree with Ragen's comments, with one small exception. As an older fat person, I would now
want seating consisting of wide chairs with arms and/or seats higher off the ground. That way I can not only sit in them, but also get up from them.
All I can say is AMEN!!!
