Why Medical Support Matters

The Problem With Doing It Alone

Losing weight is not simply a matter of willpower. For many people, biology works against them. Hormones that regulate hunger, metabolism that resists change, a body that holds on to weight even when you're doing everything right.

If you've tried diets, exercise programmes and supplements and found the results disappointing — that's not a personal failing. It's physiology. And it's exactly why medical supervision exists.

A proper clinical weight loss programme, led by Dr Faizal Secretary. Not a slimming club. Not an online questionnaire followed by a courier delivery. A qualified GP who assesses you properly, prescribes safely, and monitors your progress in person.

My Private Clinic provides medically supervised weight loss in Preston — including Wegovy and Mounjaro prescriptions where appropriate, with proper GP assessment and ongoing support.

Eligibility

Medical Weight Loss in Preston

You may be a good candidate if:

The Programme

What's Included, Month by Month

Month 0
£99

Your Consultation

A 30-minute face-to-face appointment with Dr Secretary. Full medical history, weight journey, suitability for medication — all discussed properly. You leave with a prescription if appropriate, a clear plan, and no unanswered questions.

Month 1
Included

First Check-In

A telephone appointment to review how the medication is sitting with you. Side effects, appetite changes, any concerns — all discussed. Dosage reviewed and adjusted if needed. A clinical review, not a box-ticking call.

Month 2
Included

Progress Review

A second telephone check-in to assess your progress and review your weight. By this point most patients have moved through the initial titration period. The doctor will advise on whether to continue, increase dose, or adjust the programme.

Month 3
Face-to-Face

Full Review

You come back in. The doctor assesses your progress properly — weight, measurements, how you're feeling. Dosage is reviewed, the next phase is agreed, and any concerns are addressed in person. This is where most patients see the most significant changes.

Optional Add-Ons

Enhance Your Programme

GLP-1 Baseline Blood Panel

£99

A comprehensive blood panel taken before starting medication. Checks kidney function, liver health, blood sugar, cholesterol, thyroid, and pancreatic markers — identifying any contraindications and establishing a baseline to track your progress against. Repeated at your 3-month review to measure what's improved.

WhatsApp Access — 3 Months

£99

Direct WhatsApp access to Dr Secretary, seven days a week, for three months. Ask questions as they come up — side effects, missed doses, diet, how you're feeling. Clinical advice when you need it, not when your next appointment happens to be.

Weight loss medication is only prescribed following a face-to-face clinical assessment. We do not prescribe without seeing you in person. Medication costs are separate and will be confirmed at your consultation.

Prescription Medication

The Medications

Where clinically appropriate, the doctor can prescribe the latest GLP-1 weight loss medications. Both are self-administered once weekly via a small pre-filled pen — the doctor will show you exactly how to use it.

Semaglutide (Wegovy)

Acts on one hormone (GLP-1) to reduce appetite and slow digestion. Average weight loss of ~15% of body weight in clinical trials. Well-established and widely prescribed.

Dose Our Price
Dose 1 — 0.25mg £95
Dose 2 — 0.5mg £130
Dose 3 — 1mg £140
Dose 4 — 1.75mg £170
Dose 5 — 2.4mg £190

Tirzepatide (Mounjaro)

Acts on two hormones (GLP-1 and GIP) for stronger appetite suppression and a better metabolic effect. Average weight loss of 20–22% in trials — currently the most effective licensed weight loss medication available.

Dose Our Price
Dose 1 — 2.5mg £180
Dose 2 — 5mg £200
Dose 3 — 7.5mg £255
Dose 4 — 10mg £270
Dose 5 — 12.5mg £285
Dose 6 — 15mg £300

Common Questions

Weight Loss — FAQ

Is this a quick fix?
No. Medical weight loss is not a quick fix. The medications work best alongside changes to diet and lifestyle. The doctor will be honest with you about what to expect — and will not prescribe if the programme is not right for you.
Is prescription weight loss medication safe?
GLP-1 medications are licensed in the UK and have been through rigorous clinical trials. Like all medications they have potential side effects — the most common being nausea, particularly in the early weeks. The doctor will discuss these fully.
How much weight can I expect to lose?
Clinical trials show average weight loss of 15% with semaglutide and up to 20–22% with tirzepatide, when combined with lifestyle changes. Individual results vary.
Do I have to inject myself?
Yes. Both medications are given as a once-weekly self-injection using a small pre-filled pen. The doctor will demonstrate exactly how to use it.
How much does the medication cost?
Medication costs are set by the pharmacy. The doctor will give you a clear indication at your consultation.
What happens when I stop taking the medication?
Weight can return when medication is stopped, particularly without sustained lifestyle changes. The doctor will discuss a long-term plan at your follow-up appointments.
Can I get this medication online without seeing a GP?
Yes, but we'd encourage caution. Online services often rely on questionnaires rather than clinical assessments. Medical weight loss is a clinical intervention — it deserves clinical supervision.
Is everyone suitable?
No. GLP-1 medications are not suitable for people with certain medical conditions. The doctor will review your full medical history before prescribing.
