TV show to spotlight Children’s Hospital clinic

The Arkansas Children’s Hospital weight-management clinic will be featured Tuesday night on the Oprah Winfrey Network, the hospital has said.

The clinic’s medical director, Samiya Razzaq, and her team will appear on Our America with Lisa Ling as an ideal example of weight management in children, the hospital said.

“In this episode of Our America, we spend time with a group of overweight parents who are banding together and making losing weight and getting healthy — fun,” Lisa Ling writes in an Oprah.com post previewing the episode. “They are working to save their lives as well as the lives of their children. I hope people find inspiration from them.”

OWN will air a marathon of Lisa Ling’s programs Tuesday night, but the episode focusing on childhood obesity, titled “Generation XXL,” will air at 9 p.m.
