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

Private GP weight management for Ringmer residents

Over half of adults in England are living with overweight or obesity, and that affects energy, mood and long‑term health. If you're in Ringmer and ready to make a change, Mayfield Clinic's private GP weight management in Ringmer offers medically supervised plans designed around your life, not quick fixes.

Personalised medical assessment

Our GPs start with a full medical review: history, medication check, targeted blood tests and measurements to identify hormonal or metabolic drivers of weight gain. We look for treatable causes such as thyroid dysfunction, polycystic ovary syndrome or medication-related weight gain and adapt your plan accordingly. If needed, we arrange further investigations and safe, evidence‑based interventions.

Tailored GP weight loss programmes that work

Every plan is bespoke. That might be structured nutritional advice, an exercise prescription, behavioural support, or prescription weight management medications when clinically appropriate. We use clinically proven options — including newer medications such as GLP‑1 receptor agonists under strict medical supervision — alongside lifestyle change. Our focus is sustainable weight loss and metabolic health rather than rapid, short‑term results.

“Seeing the same doctor each time makes a big difference — progress is tracked, treatments are adjusted and goals stay realistic.”

Continuity of care and fast access

Mayfield Clinic prioritises fast access to doctors and regular appointments with the same named GP so you build a therapeutic relationship. That continuity helps us spot patterns, tweak medication doses safely and support behaviour change over months, not weeks.

How appointments work for Ringmer patients

Although we serve Ringmer, our consultations take place at our nearby Lewes practice. You can read more about our local Ringmer services here and find our Lewes practice here. All appointments should be booked online via the Book now button. Members may book directly by phone or via WhatsApp.

What to expect at your first weight loss consultation

Your first visit is longer than a standard appointment. Expect a detailed medical history, measured weight and body composition where appropriate, baseline bloods, blood pressure and a discussion of achievable goals. We agree an initial plan and schedule follow‑ups to monitor progress and safety. Adjustments are made in clinic as you progress.

Why private, doctor‑led support matters

GP‑led weight management offers medical oversight for prescription treatments, safer dose adjustments and quick access to investigations. This reduces risk and improves outcomes compared with self‑directed programmes. Our approach considers psychological drivers and practical barriers — we work with you to create plans that fit Ringmer life, from busy work schedules to local walking routes across the South Downs.

Local note

Many Ringmer patients tell us they value a short drive to Lewes for appointments and appreciate a plan that fits local routines — for example, swapping convenience foods for seasonal market produce or tailoring activity plans to South Downs walks.
