Over 60% of adults in the UK struggle with weight management, yet accessing effective treatments like Ozempic through the NHS can involve lengthy waiting times. For residents in Lewes seeking faster access to semaglutide treatment, private GP consultations offer a streamlined pathway to this life-changing medication.
Ozempic contains semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist originally developed for diabetes management but now widely recognised for its remarkable weight loss benefits. This weekly injection works by slowing gastric emptying, reducing appetite, and improving blood sugar control. At Mayfield Clinic in Lewes, our experienced GPs prescribe Ozempic alongside other weight loss medications including Mounjaro and Wegovy as part of comprehensive treatment plans.
Getting an Ozempic prescription through Mayfield Clinic's Lewes practice is straightforward. You'll need to schedule a consultation with one of our private GPs who will conduct a thorough medical assessment. This includes reviewing your medical history, current medications, and weight loss goals.
During your initial appointment, your GP will perform baseline blood tests to ensure Ozempic is suitable for you. These tests check kidney function, blood sugar levels, and other vital markers that influence treatment safety. The consultation also covers potential side effects, proper injection techniques, and realistic expectations for weight loss outcomes.
Once deemed suitable for treatment, your Lewes-based GP will prescribe Ozempic with detailed instructions for administration. The medication is administered as a weekly subcutaneous injection, typically in the thigh, abdomen, or upper arm. Our medical team provides comprehensive training on injection techniques until you feel confident managing treatment at home.
