GP-led care for weight and metabolic health

Weight management is not simply about willpower. Many people have tried diets, exercise plans or weight-loss programmes, but still feel stuck or regain weight over time.

Obesity is a complex long-term health condition influenced by appetite, hormones, sleep, stress, medications, physical activity, life stage and underlying metabolic health.

At Kerry Lifestyle Medicine Clinic, we provide structured GP-led support for patients who want safe, realistic and personalised care for weight, obesity and metabolic health.

Our approach

We focus on understanding the full picture behind your weight and health, including:

• Weight history and previous attempts at weight loss

• Medical history and current medications

• Blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and metabolic risk

• Relevant blood results, where available

• Sleep, stress, eating patterns and physical activity

• Menopause, PCOS/PMOS or men’s health factors where relevant

• Suitability for weight-loss medication, if clinically appropriate

The aim is to provide a clear plan that supports long-term health, not just short-term weight loss.

Weight-loss medication

For some patients, medication may be appropriate as part of obesity treatment. This may include options such as Wegovy, Ozempic or Mounjaro, depending on clinical indication, licensing, availability and safety.

Medication is not suitable for everyone and is not guaranteed after assessment. Before considering treatment, we review your BMI, medical history, current medication, blood results, possible contraindications, previous weight-loss attempts and follow-up needs.

Where medication is prescribed, it is used as part of a wider plan that includes nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management and long-term monitoring.
