Thesis (Ph.D.)--Capella University, 2006.

Within the United States, a subset of the population who are morbidly obese encounters serious debilitation of biopsychosocial health. Abundant multidisciplinary data describe biophysical interventions to remedy somatic aspects of morbid obesity, but a paucity of literature examines the condition phenomenologically. Pervasive social sentiments of stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination endured by morbidly obese individuals are a source of diminished psychological well-being, paramount to the physical detriments of obesity. Health care providers' (HCPs) conveyance of these attitudes culminates in substandard care delivery. Subsequently, obese persons avoid illness prevention and health maintenance visits. What HCPs ostensibly understand about the phenomenon of morbid obesity is ontologically and epistemologically incomplete. Phenomenological discovery may transform HCPs' perceptions, practice, and attitudes, thus improving obesity care management.
