Private GP weight management in Golders Green — an effective medical approach

Around one in three adults in the UK live with obesity. That makes finding safe, effective support essential. Mayfield Clinic offers private GP weight management in Golders Green with fast access to doctors and continuity of care from a named clinician. Appointments for patients from Golders Green are provided at our Hampstead practice — details here:Hampstead — while local information is available on our Golders Green page: Golders Green.

What our Golders Green patients get

We treat weight management as medical care, not a quick fix. Your private GP in Golders Green begins with a full clinical assessment: medical history, medication review, targeted blood tests and measurements. That baseline allows a personalised plan combining nutrition, activity, behavioural strategies and, where clinically appropriate, prescription medical therapies.

Fast access and the same named doctor

Fast appointments matter. Many people from Golders Green tell us they value same-week access and seeing the same doctor at each visit. Mayfield Clinic offers longer consultations so your GP can explore hormonal, metabolic and psychological contributors to weight. Regular follow-up means your GP weight loss programme in Golders Green is adjusted as you progress.

First appointment — practical steps

Before your first visit bring a list of current medications, any recent blood results, and a short 7‑day food/activity diary if you can. Expect measurements (weight, waist circumference, blood pressure), initial blood tests and a discussion about realistic goals. We may arrange baseline ECG or additional endocrine tests if clinically indicated for medical weight management in Golders Green.

Medical treatments we may consider

Where appropriate, your doctor may discuss prescription options including newer GLP‑1 receptor agonists alongside traditional approaches. These are offered only after clinical assessment and with careful monitoring. Doctor supervised weight loss in Golders Green combines medication when needed with dietary guidance and regular reviews to manage side effects and optimise outcomes.

Monitoring, follow-up and practical support

Successful weight loss is gradual and requires medical oversight. Typical follow-up schedules include more frequent reviews initially (every 2–6 weeks) then monthly as you stabilise. Your GP will track weight, symptoms and labs, adjust medications and provide referrals—for example to physiotherapy or a dietitian—if that supports your goals. Members can book follow-ups directly by phone or WhatsApp; all other patients should use the Book now button on our site.

Medical weight management is about safe, sustainable change. Quick fixes don’t last; structured GP-led care does.

Who benefits from a GP weight loss programme in Golders Green?

Adults with overweight, obesity or weight-related health conditions such as type 2 diabetes or hypertension. Also people who have tried self-directed dieting without lasting results and prefer doctor supervised weight loss. If you live in Golders Green and prefer continuity with a named clinician, our Hampstead-based clinic provides that continuity and fast access.

Local note

Patients from Golders Green often tell us they like to combine appointments with a walk in Hampstead Heath afterwards — a short drive from Golders Green — which helps translate clinic advice into everyday activity.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get prescription weight loss medications through a private GP weight management consultation in Golders Green?

Yes. A private GP weight loss consultation in Golders Green begins with a clinical assessment, baseline blood tests and a personalised plan. If prescription therapy (for example a GLP‑1) is appropriate your doctor will explain risks, monitor progress and arrange follow-up. Appointments are provided at our Hampstead clinic for Golders Green patients; book online via the Book now button or members can use phone/WhatsApp.

Am I suitable for medical weight loss with a private GP in Golders Green?

Most patients are suitable for a GP weight loss programme, but suitability depends on medical history, current medications and investigation results. A private GP in Golders Green will assess cardiovascular risk, thyroid and metabolic health and decide whether medical weight loss or referral is best. Where treatment is recommended it is doctor supervised and tailored to your needs.

How often will I see my doctor during a GP weight loss programme in Golders Green?

Follow-up frequency varies: initially every 2–6 weeks, then monthly once stable. Your named doctor in the Mayfield Clinic Golders Green programme will adjust medication, order repeat tests and offer lifestyle support. Members can book continuity appointments by phone or WhatsApp; others can use the Book now button.
