Private GP weight management in Finchley | Medical weight loss with Mayfield Clinic

Weight loss

08/09/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Introduction — Around two-thirds of adults in England are overweight or living with obesity, yet personalised medical support dramatically improves long-term outcomes. If you live in Finchley and want doctor-supervised, sustainable weight loss, Mayfield Clinic offers tailored GP weight management that treats the whole person, not just the scales.

Why choose a private GP weight management programme?

Quick fixes fail because they rarely address the medical and behavioural drivers of weight. Our Finchley patients benefit from fast access to a named GP who understands their medical history, lifestyle and commitments. At Mayfield Clinic we combine assessments for hormonal or metabolic issues with realistic nutrition and activity plans so progress is safe and measurable.

Medical assessment that's specific to you

Every new patient from Finchley receives a comprehensive review: blood tests, medication review, screening for thyroid and metabolic disorders, and a sensitive assessment of psychological and social factors affecting eating. This clinical baseline lets your GP set achievable targets and pick the safest interventions.

Evidence-led treatments and medicines

We offer lifestyle coaching plus prescription support when appropriate. That can include short-term pharmacotherapy as part of a broader plan. Your GP will explain benefits, risks and alternatives; any medication is monitored closely with regular check-ups to ensure it remains right for you.

Doctor‑supervised weight loss combines medical safety with practical, personalised strategies — the fastest route to lasting change.

How our Finchley service works

1) Book online via the Book now button for a convenient first appointment. Members can also book by phone or WhatsApp for faster access.
2) See the same named doctor at follow-ups so care is consistent. Continuity matters for adjusting plans and tracking progress.
3) Regular reviews, repeat tests and nutrition adjustments keep the programme safe and effective.

Appointments and location note

Although this page is written for Finchley residents, our clinical consultations are delivered from our Hampstead practice. Finchley patients typically travel a short distance to be seen at our Hampstead clinic; full details are on our Finchley page here, and the Hampstead clinic information is available here. Many Finchley patients find the journey worthwhile for rapid access, longer consultations and continuity with the same GP.

What to expect in your first weight loss consultation

Your first private weight loss consultation focuses on safety and clarity. Expect a medical history, medication review, targeted blood tests, measurement of body composition where appropriate, and a collaborative plan. You will leave with written goals, practical steps for the next four weeks and a scheduled follow-up.

Practical support between appointments

We provide written resources, meal structure guidance, and measurable tracking tools. If medication is started, monitoring is frequent at the beginning to watch for side effects and to adjust dose. Members benefit from telephone or WhatsApp contact for interim questions.

Who will benefit?

Adults from Finchley who want medically supervised weight loss, people with obesity-related health risks, and patients with metabolic or hormonal contributors to weight gain. We also support those recovering from setbacks who need a structured medical plan rather than generic advice.

Unique local note

Finchley residents often value local convenience and trusted continuity. Many patients tell us they prefer a clinician who understands north London life — commuting patterns, family schedules and local food options — and we build plans that fit those realities.
