Private GP weight management in West Hampstead — medically supervised plans

Private GP weight management support in West Hampstead

Nearly one in three adults consider weight a major health concern. At Mayfield Clinic, our private GP weight management for West Hampstead patients combines medical rigour with practical, lasting lifestyle changes. We assess what’s driving your weight, prescribe only what’s clinically appropriate and follow you closely — longer appointments, the same named doctor and rapid access to care.

Why choose a private GP for weight loss?

Quick fixes fail because they don’t address underlying causes. A Mayfield Clinic GP in West Hampstead will review medications, check for hormonal and metabolic issues, screen for sleep and mental-health contributors and order targeted blood tests. That medical insight means a personalised plan — safe, effective and tailored to your life in West Hampstead and nearby areas.

What our GP-led weight management includes

• Comprehensive initial assessment with medical history, examination and baseline blood tests.
• Individual nutrition guidance linked to your health profile — not one-size-fits-all diets.
• Structured follow-up appointments to monitor progress, adjust plans and manage side effects.
• Prescription weight management medications where clinically suitable, used alongside lifestyle support.
• Referral to complementary specialists (endocrinology, dietetics, mental health) when needed.

How we tailor plans for West Hampstead patients

We understand local life: short commutes on the Overground or Jubilee line, active weekends in Hampstead Heath and limited time for lengthy cooking. Plans reflect those realities — practical meal ideas, exercises that fit a busy schedule and timed medication reviews to suit shift patterns or childcare responsibilities. For West Hampstead residents, appointments are carried out at our St John's Wood practice; see directions and details here. Learn about our West Hampstead outreach here.

Medication and medical supervision

There are newer prescription options that can support weight loss when combined with lifestyle change. Our GPs in West Hampstead evaluate suitability carefully, discuss benefits and risks and monitor response closely. Regular check-ups and blood tests reduce risk and ensure the treatment is helping you reach realistic goals.

Longer consultations, the same named doctor

Consistency matters. At Mayfield Clinic we offer longer appointments so your GP can explore psychological factors, stress eating and previous weight-management attempts. You will usually see the same named doctor for continuity — vital for building trust and making steady, safe progress.

What to expect at your first appointment

Expect a thorough assessment: medical history, measurements, blood works where indicated and a clear plan with measurable short- and medium-term goals. You’ll leave with practical steps you can start immediately and a schedule for follow-up reviews. If you live in West Hampstead we’ll arrange your assessment at St John's Wood; travel time is short and many patients from West Hampstead find the clinic easy to reach by public transport.

Practical tips you can use today

• Start with a three-day food and mood diary to bring to your first appointment.
• Schedule evening walks after work — 20 minutes counts and fits West Hampstead routines.
• Plan two meals each week from simple protein, veg and wholegrain templates to reduce decision fatigue.

Medical weight management blends evidence-based treatments with real life. We help you build sustainable habits, not short-lived results.
