There probably is more to the story. Far too many doctors, as [livejournal.com profile] erickavan can attest, see a patient's weight more than they see the reason their patient is in their office. If this doctor remarked on the woman's weight when it did not relate to her presenting problem or, as the story seems to suggest, was indelicate about how he thought her weight might affect other parts of her life, that's out of line.
