How do I get Wegovy? Private GP prescriptions for Ely patients

How do I get Wegovy in Ely?

Looking for a reliable route to start Wegovy for weight management? Many people ask where to buy Wegovy and how to get a Wegovy prescription near me. At Mayfield Clinic we offer private GP consultations that assess suitability, perform baseline tests and provide ongoing support — fast access and continuity with the same named doctor are core to our approach.

What is Wegovy and how does it work?

Wegovy (semaglutide) is a prescription medicine licensed for weight management in people with obesity or who need additional support to lose weight. It works by reducing appetite and helping you feel fuller. Ozempic and Mounjaro are similar injectable medications used for weight loss in suitable patients; we can discuss which option is right for you during your consultation.

Who can get Wegovy through a private GP?

Not everyone is suitable for Wegovy. In a standard private GP consultation at Mayfield Clinic we carefully assess your medical history, current medications, and any underlying conditions. We also perform baseline blood tests and, where appropriate, check for other causes of weight gain. If Wegovy is clinically appropriate, your GP can issue a private prescription and set up a treatment plan.

Step-by-step: How to get a Wegovy prescription with Mayfield Clinic

1. Book an appointment online via the Book now button for the Ely area — members can also book by phone or WhatsApp.
2. Attend a thorough consultation with a named GP (fast access to the same doctor promotes continuity).
3. Undergo baseline blood tests and clinical checks to confirm suitability.
4. If appropriate, receive a private prescription for Wegovy (or an alternative such as Ozempic or Mounjaro) and training on the weekly injection.
5. Start treatment with monthly follow-ups to monitor progress, adjust dose and manage side effects, supported by our multidisciplinary team if needed.

What to expect at your first appointment

Your GP will discuss realistic weight-loss goals, review prior attempts and explain how Wegovy fits into a wider plan. Expect questions about lifestyle, sleep, mental health and other medications. We’ll arrange baseline blood tests during or shortly after the consultation. If you live in Ely you will be seen at our Cambridge practice — this is a short drive across the Fens and many patients from Ely find the commute straightforward. For information about the Cambridge site see our Cambridge practice page.

Fast access to a named doctor — that consistency makes the difference in safe, effective Wegovy treatment.

Injection training, follow-up and long-term support

Wegovy is given as a weekly injection. Our GPs and nurses will provide hands-on training so you feel confident administering it at home. You’ll have monthly reviews to track weight, adjust dose, and address any issues. For long-term success we offer access to psychologists, dietitians and exercise specialists — an integrated programme improves outcomes.

Costs, prescriptions and how to buy Wegovy

Private prescription costs vary depending on treatment duration and the exact formulation. We provide a personalised quote during consultation.
