Weight Management – Weight Loss
This is the current hot topic of the year! Weight management is such as sensitive and important consultation that needs a lot of time and patience on behalf of both the doctor and the patient.
The treatments offered are patchy and a bit of a lottery across the country. I feel quite strongly about the need for discussions around this health issue, which is usually the last thing discussed in a 10-minute consultation but has such a big impact on so many different aspects of a patients life.
Weight loss injections are easy to obtain, but the service I offer is more bespoke to the individual’s needs. There are a lot of psychological or hormonal factors that contribute to weight gain, which need careful consideration to achieve a long term sustainable solution. There are many layers to weight management, which include not just a dietary and nutritional assessment but also a lifestyle and stress management approach.
I have patients who have embarked on this journey and have seen great benefits, but feel quite isolated on this quest to be healthy. I feel I can offer a supportive and empathetic approach to helping you on this journey.
If you are looking for a healthy weight loss plan tailored to you specifically and you are in Birmingham, West Midlands, Harborne, Kings Heath, Stourbridge or Dudley I am here to help.

My approach to your weight loss programme
Includes a 15 min appointment for weight, BP and BMI and a blood test if eligible to ensure it is safe to proceed with the medication. If you are eligible for injections, you will have a monthly appointment, which can be online or in person, an email questionnaire and a follow-up prescription. You will need 3 monthly blood tests to check it is safe to continue prescribing the medications.
