What our GP weight management service offers

Our Private GP weight management in St John's Wood starts with a thorough medical assessment.Your GP will review medical history,current medications,hormonal and metabolic factors,and lifestyle patterns.We create an evidence-based plan that combines personalised nutrition advice,behavioural strategies,exercise guidance and medical options when appropriate.

Fast access and continuity

We know speed matters.Patients from St John's Wood can book online using the Book now button for quick appointments,and members may book directly by phone or WhatsApp.These longer consultations give time to build a relationship with a named doctor,so your GP weight loss programme is consistent and adjusted as you progress.

Medical assessment and monitoring

At your first appointment we perform focused tests where indicated —bloods for thyroid,functional markers,lipids,and HbA1c —and screen for sleep apnoea,PCOS or other conditions affecting weight.Your GP will set measurable targets,arrange follow-up reviews and monitor safety for any prescription weight management medication.

Prescription and non-prescription options

Doctor supervised weight loss in St John's Wood includes lifestyle-first plans and,when clinically appropriate, prescription medications to support appetite control or metabolic change.Modern agents can be powerful aids but work best combined with dietary and behavioural support;our GPs only prescribe where safe and monitored.

“Medical oversight changes outcomes:we treat the whole person,not just the number on the scales.”

How consultations work

Expect longer first appointments to explore causes and set a tailored plan.Your GP arranges any baseline tests,provides nutritional and activity targets,and books regular reviews to track progress and adjust treatments.Continuity with the same doctor improves adherence and clinical safety —a key difference between Private GP weight management and one-off programmes.
