This article discusses the important yet under-addressed issue of clinician bodies within eating disorder services. I would like to further the discussion on a particular correspondence in, where a professional who was perceived as dangerously thin was challenged and confronted by their colleagues in a work setting. This article will consider the issue from four perspectives, being the implications for the therapeutic relationship, how we approach biases and assumptions about weight and body size, ethical and legal issues, and how to manage lived experience. I argue for a more nuanced, considered approach towards professionals in the field before decisions are made to manage or confront them.
