If you live in Altrincham and have tried diets that stall or plans that feel unsustainable, Mayfield Clinic's private GP weight management service offers a different route: clinical, tailored and long-term. Our Altrincham patients are seen at our nearby Hale practice, so you get local-focused care with expert medical oversight delivered from Hale — book online via the Book now button or, if you're a member, call or WhatsApp to arrange appointments.
At your first weight loss consultation our GP will take an in-depth medical history, check medications, screen for hormonal or metabolic causes of weight gain and run targeted tests when needed. That means we look for treatable contributors such as thyroid dysfunction, insulin resistance or sleep apnoea. Identifying these issues at the outset prevents wasted effort on one-size-fits-all plans.
We design a plan around your health profile and daily life. Nutrition guidance is evidence-based and pragmatic: portion control, timing, macronutrient balance and swaps you can maintain. We integrate behaviour strategies — goal setting, hunger awareness and relapse planning — so changes stick. Appointments are longer than a typical GP visit, allowing time to create a workable programme and explain why each step matters.
When clinically appropriate we can prescribe medical weight management treatments alongside lifestyle change. These are used carefully, monitored regularly, and adjusted as you progress. For people in Altrincham seeking a weight loss doctor, this means access to medication options under direct GP supervision at our Hale clinic, with follow-up arranged to check safety and effectiveness.
Fast access to doctors matters, but so does continuity. We aim to offer regular appointments with the same named GP so your care plan evolves with you. That continuity helps us refine interventions, address plateaus and respond to new health information quickly — a major advantage over drop-in or transactional services.
Progress is tracked using weight, body composition where appropriate, blood tests and symptom reviews. Regular check-ups mean we can alter caloric targets, change medication or add referrals (for example to sleep clinics or specialists) if an underlying issue is identified. Many Altrincham patients appreciate this structured, data-led approach as it reduces guesswork and keeps motivation high.
Expect a thorough clinical review, measurable baseline tests, a clear short-term plan and agreed goals. You will leave with specific actions: nutritional adjustments, an exercise recommendation tailored to your routine, and a follow-up schedule. If you are local to Altrincham we'll see you at our Hale location — full details at our Hale page: Mayfield Clinic Hale. For general Altrincham info see Mayfield Clinic Altrincham.
Example fact: a structured medical programme with regular review doubles the likelihood of clinically meaningful weight loss at 12 months compared with unsupported dieting.
Although our service for Altrincham patients operates from Hale, appointments are scheduled to suit you, including early slots and convenient follow-ups. Book via the Book now button; members may book by phone or WhatsApp for greater flexibility.
Our private GP weight management is appropriate if you need medically supervised support, have struggled with previous attempts, or have health conditions affected by weight. To start, book an initial weight loss consultation private appointment online — we’ll explain the clinical pathway and next steps in plain language.
