Private GP Weight Loss Appointments Edinburgh | Mayfield Clinic

Weight loss journeys can feel overwhelming. Finding the right medical support shouldn't add to that stress. At Mayfield Clinic Edinburgh, our private GP weight loss appointments offer a streamlined path to evidence-based treatments like Ozempic, Mounjaro, and WeGovy, with same-day consultations available for patients ready to take the next step.

Edinburgh residents seeking private GP weight loss services can now access comprehensive weight management programmes without the lengthy NHS waiting times. Our approach combines cutting-edge medications with personalised lifestyle guidance, ensuring you receive the support needed for sustainable results.

What to Expect During Your Private Weight Loss Consultation

Your private GP weight loss appointment begins with a thorough medical assessment. Our Edinburgh-based doctors review your complete medical history, current medications, and previous weight loss attempts. This detailed evaluation ensures any prescribed treatment aligns perfectly with your health profile and weight loss goals.

Baseline blood tests form a crucial part of our comprehensive weight loss plan. These tests check your liver function, kidney health, and blood sugar levels - essential markers before starting medications like semaglutide (Ozempic) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro). Results are typically available within 24 hours, allowing for swift treatment initiation.

"Our Edinburgh patients appreciate the thoroughness of our approach. We're not just prescribing medication; we're creating a complete weight management strategy tailored to each individual."

Weight Loss Medications Available at Mayfield Clinic Edinburgh

Private GP weight loss medications available through our Edinburgh clinic include:

Ozempic (Semaglutide): Originally developed for type 2 diabetes, this weekly injection has shown remarkable weight loss benefits. Patients typically lose 10-15% of their body weight when combined with lifestyle changes.

Mounjaro (Tirzepatide): The newest addition to weight loss treatments, showing even more promising results than semaglutide in clinical trials. Weekly injections can lead to weight loss of 15-20% in suitable candidates.

WeGovy: Specifically licensed for weight management, this higher-dose semaglutide formulation is designed exclusively for weight loss rather than diabetes management.

The Injection Process and Ongoing Support

Many Edinburgh patients feel anxious about self-administering injections. Our private GP for weight loss injections service includes comprehensive training during your appointment. You'll practice the injection technique until completely confident, with detailed written instructions provided for home use.

Monthly follow-up appointments monitor your progress and allow for dose adjustments. These extended GP appointments for weight loss provide time to discuss any side effects, celebrate achievements, and modify your treatment plan as needed. Online consultations are also available for routine check-ins, offering flexibility for busy Edinburgh professionals.

Comprehensive Weight Management Beyond Medication

Personalised weight loss advice extends beyond prescription medications. Our Edinburgh clinic offers access to a multi-disciplinary team including nutritionists, exercise physiologists, and mental health specialists. This holistic approach addresses the psychological and lifestyle factors that contribute to weight gain.

Dietary guidance focuses on sustainable changes rather than restrictive diets. Exercise recommendations are tailored to your current fitness level and gradually progressed. Psychological support helps address emotional eating patterns and builds long-term habits for weight maintenance.
