Medical Weight Management
UNDERSTANDING PATHWAYS
GLP-1 Receptor Action
Replicates the body's natural glucagon-like peptide-1 hormone. It signals satiety centres in the brain to reduce hunger cues, curb cravings, and promote lasting fullness after meals.
Clinical Eligibility Assessment
Evaluated for adults with a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m² (or ≥ 27 kg/m² alongside weight-related health conditions), utilised strictly as an adjunct to tailored nutrition and physical activity.
Stepwise Dose Titration
Administered via a progressive monthly escalation schedule. Dosing steps are monitored by your prescribing clinician to ensure patient comfort, safety, and individual tolerability.
Prescriber Safety Review
Because gastric emptying is slowed, oral medications (including contraceptive absorption) are reviewed by your doctor during your clinical assessment to ensure proper management.
Prescription decisions remain strictly subject to an individual medical consultation.
CLINICAL GOVERNANCE & CARE PATHWAY
How Our Medical Weight Management Journey Works
A clinician-led, patient-first care pathway supporting your metabolic health from initial evaluation to long-term maintenance.

STEP 3
Monthly Review & Lifestyle Coaching
Receive free monthly coaching sessions with your clinician alongside regular progress reviews to help you establish lasting lifestyle changes and long-term metabolic health.
STEP 4
Continuous Clinical Support
An established clinical practice led by GPs & Advanced Nurse Practitioners, not an online shop. Enjoy direct clinician advice, proactive monitoring, with no additional fees.

Why Choose a GP-Led Clinic Over an Online Pharmacy
Dedicated Medical Governance, Continuous Monitoring and Personalised Care

It continues with regular reviews, ongoing monitoring and personalised lifestyle coaching, with your clinician on hand whenever you need guidance.
WELCOMING NEW PATIENTS
Our weight management service recently reached full capacity because of exceptional demand. Rather than compromise on clinical care, we paused new bookings while we expanded our team. We’re now pleased to welcome new patients again and availability will hopefully keep increasing as our team grows.
