Almost two-thirds of adults in England are classified as overweight or living with obesity, and many people in Peacehaven want practical, medically safe ways to change that. At Mayfield Clinic we offer private GP weight management in Peacehaven with a clear focus on long-term results, not quick fixes. Our process blends clinical assessment, personalised nutrition, behaviour strategies and, where appropriate, prescription medications — all delivered with longer appointments and continuity with the same named doctor.
Private GP weight management offers faster access to doctors and a tailored plan that reflects your health history. Our Peacehaven patients are seen at our nearby Lewes practice (Mayfield Clinic, Lewes), giving you specialist care close to home. A private pathway means a focused first consultation, regular follow-ups with the same GP, and care decisions based on clinical tests rather than one-size-fits-all advice.
We assess the whole picture. That starts with screening for underlying causes that affect weight: thyroid and hormonal issues, medication effects, metabolic conditions and sleep problems. We measure body composition, review diet and activity, and screen for mental health and eating behaviour. From there we co-design a plan that may include structured nutrition guidance, realistic activity goals, behavioural strategies and medical treatments if clinically appropriate.
Where indicated, our GPs can prescribe evidence-based weight management medications and supervise their use safely. These newer options can support lifestyle change, especially when metabolic or hormonal factors make weight loss harder. Every prescription is accompanied by regular monitoring: blood tests, blood pressure checks and structured reviews so we can adjust dose or approach based on progress and side effects.
“Long consultations and continuity with the same GP are central to safer, sustainable weight loss.”
Your initial private weight loss consultation in Peacehaven starts with a comprehensive medical review: history, medication list, previous weight attempts and expectations. We take targeted blood tests, measure metabolic markers and discuss realistic goals. You will leave with a clear plan — often a 12-week structured programme — with checkpoints and measurable targets.
One of the benefits of choosing Mayfield Clinic for Private GP weight management in Peacehaven is continuity. You will usually see the same named doctor for follow-up appointments. That means the clinician who knows your story monitors your progress, adjusts medications and supports you through plateaus. Appointments are available quickly via our online Book now button; members can also book directly by phone or WhatsApp for added convenience.
We provide realistic nutrition plans that fit your day-to-day life in Peacehaven: seaside walks, markets and local food options are considered when we craft meal and activity plans. A small local fact: many patients find brisk walks along the coastal path or nearby South Downs a sustainable way to increase activity without gym membership. We tailor advice to your routine, work pattern, and food preferences so changes stick.
Progress is measured objectively: weight, body composition when appropriate, blood markers and practical markers such as energy, sleep and medication changes. We schedule regular reviews and use them to refine the plan. If you begin medication, safety bloods and symptom checks are completed at defined intervals to ensure benefit outweighs risk.
If you want doctor-supervised weight loss, timely access to appointments, and a named GP who oversees your care, this pathway is suitable for many adults. It is particularly helpful if you have underlying health conditions, have struggled with weight despite repeated attempts, or would benefit from medical treatments alongside lifestyle change. For patients in Peacehaven, appointments are arranged at our Lewes practice (see Lewes location), a short, convenient journey for personalised care.
