Private GP weight management in Baldock: safe, medical, tailored

Around two‑thirds of adults in the UK are overweight or living with obesity. Short appointments and one‑size‑fits‑all plans don’t work. At Mayfield Clinic we offer fast access to a named GP who understands your health, your life and your goals. If you live in Baldock we welcome you — our consultations take place at our nearby Hitchin practice, a short drive from Baldock. Find out about our Baldock service and learn how we deliver care from Hitchin.

Why choose medically supervised weight loss?

Professional weight loss support is about safety and sustainability. Our private GP weight management Baldock patients receive a full medical assessment to identify hormonal, metabolic or medication‑related causes of weight gain. We combine clinical tests with lifestyle planning so you don’t chase short‑term fixes.

What happens at your first appointment

Expect a longer consultation than a typical NHS slot. We review medical history, current medications, sleep, stress and eating patterns. Blood tests and targeted investigations are ordered when needed. From there we agree measurable goals and a realistic timeline.

Personalised programmes, not templates

Your GP creates a tailored plan: nutrition guidance matched to your health, exercise recommendations you can sustain, behavioural strategies and close clinical review. Some patients benefit from prescription medical weight management; medications are considered only when clinically appropriate and always monitored.

Medications we may discuss

Where indicated, our doctors discuss the evidence, side effects and monitoring for modern options alongside lifestyle change. Your GP will explain expectations, monitoring frequency and how treatment fits your priorities. All prescribing and follow‑up are doctor supervised.

Continuity and quick access — two priorities

Patients in Baldock tell us they value seeing the same doctor each time. We structure follow‑ups so you have a named GP for continuity, not a rota of clinicians. Fast access matters too: book your initial private weight loss consultation online via the Book now button. Members can also book directly by Phone or via WhatsApp.
