  • Obesity in kids and adults - recognising it as a disease
    May 3 2024

    Our guest this week is Dr Donal O’Shea of UCD School of Medicine who speaks to regular hosts Michael Kelly and Wendy Grace about how to prevent obesity and be healthy at any weight, provided one makes healthy choices and exercises. As the HSE's Clinical Lead on Obesity in Ireland, he emphasises the importance of “children being active as a default”. They also discuss how consumers are hoodwinked by packaging, claims of 'healthy ingredients' and the rising levels of sugars in even the most basic food items.

  • "Nobody wanted to listen" says top gender doctor
    Apr 25 2024

    In this week’s episode, regular hosts Michael Kelly and Wendy Grace speak with Prof. Donal O’Shea, an endocrinologist working at St Vincent’s Private Hospital. He has worked for many years in the field of gender transition in both the UK and Ireland.

    In the past he says his and others concerns with regards to the medical care of children and young adults were not listened to and now the Cass report seems to be a watershed moment in countries that want to adopt and grow the evidence-based model to get the best outcomes for individuals who are gender questioning – a journey that, if done well, is an incredibly positive journey with good outcomes, he says.
