Eating Disorders in Primary Care and Community-Based Clinics: Tools and Resources for the Clinician
Eating disorders are underdetected and undertreated, particularly as many individuals with these conditions do not have obvious signs or symptoms. Healthcare providers working in primary care or community-based settings can make a difference by addressing eating disorders as early as possible. Screening for these conditions is a challenge given the lack of specific strategies that fit the needs of primary care or community-based practice.
