Private GP weight management in Stotfold — medically supervised plans

Introduction

Nearly two-thirds of UK adults are overweight or obese — for many, the missing piece is medical support, not willpower. At Mayfield Clinic we offer Private GP weight management in Stotfold with fast access to doctors and continuity of care from the same named clinician. Short-term diets fail; safe, sustainable change needs assessment, monitoring and adjustments. If you live in Stotfold you’ll be seen at our nearby Hitchin practice, making it easy to combine clinical appointments with daily life — a walk by Stotfold Watermill or the River Ivel can be an effective, low-impact habit to start.

What our GP weight loss programme offers

Our GP weight loss programme in Stotfold begins with a thorough medical assessment. That includes history, targeted blood tests (thyroid, fasting glucose, lipids), blood pressure checks and a review of medications that may affect weight. We screen for hormonal and metabolic issues, assess sleep and mood, and look at eating patterns — psychological factors are part of the plan, not an afterthought.

Personalised plans, medically supervised

We create tailored plans combining realistic dietary changes, activity goals and behaviour strategies. You receive written targets, follow-up milestones and regular GP reviews to measure progress and adapt treatment. Longer consultation times mean we can explore complex causes of weight gain and make clinically appropriate decisions together.

Prescription options where appropriate

When clinically indicated, our Private GP weight management in Stotfold can include prescription medications to support weight loss. We discuss options, benefits and side effects, and monitor therapy closely. Newer treatments such as GLP‑1 receptor agonists are sometimes appropriate alongside lifestyle change; your GP will explain whether a medication is right for you and how it will be supervised.

Named GP continuity & fast access

Two features that matter: fast access to appointments and regular meetings with the same named doctor. You’ll see a Mayfield Clinic GP who knows your history and can spot subtle trends in progress or setbacks. That continuity improves outcomes — and suits people juggling work, family and the routines of Stotfold life.

Professional weight loss is not one-size-fits-all. Medical oversight changes the odds in your favour.

How we support behaviour change

We combine practical, evidence-based advice with small, actionable steps. Examples: swapping one daily sugary drink for water, scheduling three 20-minute brisk walks per week (try the stretch along the River Ivel), or using a simple food diary for two weeks to identify hidden calories. Our GPs work with nutritionists and mental health professionals as needed, and adjust the plan based on objective data.
