Weight loss

08/09/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Around 63% of UK adults are recorded as overweight or living with obesity—so personalised, medically supervised support is no longer a luxury. If you live in Knutsford and want a practical, doctor-led route to sustainable weight loss, Mayfield Clinic’s private GP programme combines fast access, longer consultations and continuity with the same named GP to build a plan that fits your life.

Private GP weight management tailored for Knutsford patients

Our GPs assess more than just the number on the scales. We screen for hormonal imbalances, metabolic issues, medication side effects and psychological drivers of weight. For Knutsford residents that means a full medical review, targeted blood tests and an evidence-based plan delivered by a clinician who knows your history.

Where you’ll be seen

Patients searching for “Private GP weight management Knutsford” should note that our clinics serving Knutsford are delivered from our Altrincham practice. You can find details here: Mayfield Clinic Altrincham. For local info, visit our Knutsford page: Knutsford.

What our medical weight loss programme includes

Assessment: full medical history, targeted bloods (thyroid, HbA1c, lipids, liver), measurement of body composition where helpful.

Personalised plan: realistic weight targets, nutrition guidance tailored to your schedule, safe activity recommendations and strategies for emotional eating.

Medically supervised options: when clinically appropriate we offer prescription medications, including newer GLP‑1 therapies, with careful monitoring and dose adjustments.

Continuity and fast access

We prioritise seeing you quickly and with continuity. Book online via the Book now button to secure a timely appointment. Members benefit from direct booking by phone or via WhatsApp and can often see the same named GP for follow-up visits—important for steady progress.

Longer consultations let us uncover medical obstacles to weight loss that short clinic slots miss—especially useful for busy Knutsford patients who want real results.

What to expect at your first weight loss consultation

Your first appointment is longer than a typical GP visit. Expect a full review of medical history, current medication, lifestyle, sleep and mood. We'll agree measurable goals, outline tests, and discuss whether a prescription treatment is suitable for you.

Monitoring and follow-up

Follow-ups are structured: symptom checks, blood test reviews and dose adjustments for any medications. We balance ambition with safety—frequent reviews reduce side-effect risk and keep you moving toward your goal.

Practical local considerations for Knutsford patients

Many people from Knutsford travel routinely to Altrincham for specialist appointments; our clinic is a short drive away and easily reachable by local transport. Bring any local activity goals—perhaps walking in Tatton Park—to your plan. We’ll integrate what you already enjoy so changes stick.
