Mandatory GP Consent
Mandatory GP Consent: Ensuring Your Safety
At our clinic, your safety is our top priority. To ensure that weight loss treatment is appropriate and safe for you, we require mandatory GP consent before prescribing medications such as Wegovy® or Mounjaro®.
Why GP Consent is Important:
- Comprehensive Care: Your GP has an in-depth understanding of your overall health and medical history. Their input helps us ensure that the prescribed treatment aligns with your existing care plan.
- Safety First: Weight loss medications can interact with other treatments or conditions. GP consent ensures that there are no contraindications or potential risks.
- Collaborative Approach: By involving your GP, we work together to provide you with the best care and support throughout your weight loss journey.
How It Works:
- Assessment: During your initial consultation, we will review your medical history, weight, BMI, and overall health status.
- GP Consent Form: With your permission, we will contact your GP to request confirmation that the treatment is safe and suitable for you.
- Approval: Once we receive your GP's consent, we can proceed with prescribing the medication and providing your personalised treatment plan.
Ongoing Communication:
If needed, we will continue to keep your GP informed of your progress to ensure seamless and safe care. This extra layer of precaution ensures that you can focus on achieving your weight loss goals with confidence, knowing that every aspect of your health has been considered.If you have any questions about this process, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.
