Why WeightConsult

Losing weight is about more than just eating less

Being overweight is rarely caused by a single factor. Health, appetite, habits, environment and lifestyle all play a part. At the same time, we believe that medication should never be seen as a stand-alone or quick fix.

That is why WeightConsult combines medical treatment with practical support. We want you to understand why a particular treatment may or may not be right for you, what you can expect, and what choices will be made along the way.

Not a standard programme, but a medically sound approach tailored to your situation.

Our approach

Meticulous where necessary, straightforward where possible

We keep the process straightforward without losing sight of medical rigour.

Medically sound

Your medical condition will be assessed before treatment begins. A prescription will only be issued once the doctor has given their approval.

Clear & personal

No unnecessary jargon. We’ll explain what to expect and will be on hand to answer any questions you may have throughout the process.

Entirely online

From questionnaires and online consultations to support: the programme is designed to be followed safely and easily from home.
