Medical weight management

Apply first. A doctor reads every one.

You cannot book this appointment directly. Answer the questions below, a doctor reads your answers, and we telephone you. It takes about four minutes.

  1. Step 1

    You answer

    A short medical form. Some answers mean the programme is not right for you, and we will say so.

  2. Step 2

    A doctor reads it

    Not a computer, and not a salesperson. One of our doctors, usually within two working days.

  3. Step 3

    We telephone you

    Either way. If it suits you, the next step is a consultation and an examination.

Some people are told no

This is a medical programme, so it does not suit everybody. Answering honestly is what keeps it safe. Nothing here promises a result, and nothing is prescribed without an examination first.

Your permission

Read how this practice looks after your information before you tick the boxes. It opens on its own page, so nothing you have typed here is lost.

Your answers are health information. They are stored inside the practice system, every time a member of staff opens them is recorded, and they are not sent to anybody outside the practice.

This does not book an appointment.
