When to book the Weight Management Service

Book a private weight management consultation if you:

  • Are overweight or living with obesity
  • Have struggled to lose weight through diet and exercise alone
  • Want professional healthcare guidance rather than going it alone
  • Are looking for medically supervised weight-loss treatment

Obesity affects around 1 in 4 adults in the UK and raises the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. Our pharmacists will assess whether treatment is suitable based on your BMI, health history and lifestyle.

What is the Weight Management Service?

The service supports people who want to lose weight safely with professional healthcare guidance. Your pharmacist can assess your current weight and health history, discuss your goals, give lifestyle and nutrition advice, and recommend medically approved treatments that support weight loss alongside diet and lifestyle changes.

How the service works

  • Initial consultation - questions about your medical history, current medicines and weight-loss goals
  • Health assessment - checking your weight, body mass index (BMI) and general health to find the right approach
  • Personalised plan - lifestyle and dietary advice, physical activity recommendations, and access to weight loss medication where appropriate
  • Ongoing support - follow-up consultations to monitor progress and keep you on track

Weight Management Service (Private) FAQs

Do I need a referral to access this service?
To visit Allied Pharmacy for the Weight Management Service, you do not need a referral from your GP or doctor. Simply, head in-store and speak to a pharmacist when you are ready for relevant treatments for weight loss.
No, weight loss treatment is not a permanent fix. Obesity is not like an infection as it is commonly referred to as a chronic disease, therefore long-term management is needed.
A follow-up appointment is required and will be arranged at the end of every consultation. These appointments are vital to track and review your progress, potential challenges or adjustments that may need to be made. Your follow-up appointments are typically every 4 weeks.
