False. If you search in Google Scholar or some other database using these keywords, you will see countless empirical, peer-reviewed research studies showing how healthcare providers are significantly influenced by their implicit biases regarding obese patients, leading to healthcare disparities.

Implicit bias refers to our unconscious decisions and perceptions of people, and if you want to learn more about it, I highly suggest you visit Harvard's Project Implicit online.

While implicit bias is pervasive, there still are some healthcare workers who are more explicitly biased towards their obese patients. This is also a serious problem.
