Private GP Weight Management in Shoreham-by-Sea: Medical Support That Works

Weight loss

20/10/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Personalised medical weight management for Shoreham-by-Sea residents

Half a stone lost in three months is realistic for many when treatment is medically supervised and tailored to you. At Mayfield Clinic, our private GP weight management service for Shoreham-by-Sea residents combines clinical assessment, practical nutrition advice and ongoing review to make that happen.

Why choose a private GP weight loss programme?

Quick fixes rarely last. Our Shoreham-by-Sea patients get fast access to doctors and continuity of care from the same named GP, so plans evolve with your progress. We assess hormones, medications, metabolic health and mental health factors that affect weight, then design a plan that fits your life.

What a typical GP weight loss consultation includes

We start with a comprehensive medical review: measurements, blood tests and a review of medications. Expect specific, actionable targets — calorie guidance adjusted for your metabolism, appetite strategies, sleep and activity recommendations — plus clear timelines. Where clinically appropriate we discuss prescription options to support weight loss alongside lifestyle changes.

Prescription medicines and clinical oversight

There are newer, effective licensed medications that can be part of a medically supervised weight management programme. Our GPs in Shoreham-by-Sea assess suitability, monitor side effects and adjust dosing. This doctor-supervised approach reduces risks and improves outcomes versus unsupervised use.

Ongoing support and follow-up

Regular check-ups let us tweak plans, repeat blood tests and support behaviour change. Patients from Shoreham-by-Sea typically attend with a named GP for continuity; this relationship helps spot underlying problems such as thyroid dysfunction or stress-related eating patterns early.

Who will benefit most?

People with a BMI over 27, those with weight-related health issues (blood pressure, diabetes risk), or anyone who has struggled with repeated short-term dieting are good candidates for a GP weight loss programme in Shoreham-by-Sea. We also accept driven, time-poor patients who need a practical, medical approach to weight loss.
