I have to agree with Stan on this one, she should just lose the weight.
I'm sorry, I don't even see where this is poor bedside manner. He didn't call her "fat," he didn't ridicule her, he told her that for her health she needs to lose weight.

It's his job to tell the patient that she's at a dangerous weight, and from what it sounds like, that's exactly what he did.
