WHAT IS a MEDICATED WEIGHT MANAGEMENT SERVICE?

Scotland's Weight Clinic offer the weight loss injections Mounjaro and Wegovy, along with full support, a named clinician and accessible coach throughout your journey. 

At Scotland's Weight Clinic, we do not simply provide you with the products and leave you to it. We support you every step of the way.

From start to finish, we like to stand out from other providers. 

While other suppliers advertise a fully online process, where you never have to talk to anyone, we understand that this doesn't suit everyone. We know that a number of people are anxious about starting these injections. They may have questions, apprehension, uncertainty and they may not have the knowledge or relevant information to allow them to make an informed decision about starting these medications.

That's where we come in.

We have an initial face to face consultation in our clinic, where we take the time to understand your motivations, lifestyle, challenges, concerns and questions. We then discuss every aspect of the medications, as well as provide lifestyle advice to help you get the most out of the medications. 

It allows people to really understand what they are doing, empowers them to take control of their journey and proceed with the confidence that they are fully supported. Our support continues throughout your journey, where you have full access to named individuals, 7 days a week. This allows you to seek support or have questions answered, at any time.

Our experience has taught us that a face to face initial consultation really allows people to feel at ease and open up about any concerns or uncertainties they may have. Our welcoming environment is relaxed and one in which people feel comfortable discussing their weight loss journey in detail. 

From this, we make sure that the medications are safe and suitable for you. 

We supply the medications to eligible clients during the initial consultation. As long as you meet our prescribing criteria and after we have taken the time to explain how to use the device, you will be supplied with it there and then. 

We have a number of options available here. 

If you stay relatively local to the clinic, you can pop in when you are due your next supply and we will supply it there and then. You do not need to book an appointment to do this. 

If you are not local and do not wish to come to the clinic for your subsequent supplies, we can arrange to have them sent by courier to you. 

We will outline these options in more detail during your initial face to face consultation and note your decision. 

Whichever follow up option you choose, we still need to speak with you to ensure that you are doing ok with the medications, not having side effects and discuss whether you want to increase strength of the medication or stay the same for the next month. This communication can be in person if you are collecting in the clinic or by email, phone or messenger if you we are couriering your next supplies to you. 

Unlike online suppliers who supply the products without even speaking to their clients, we pride ourselves on our customer service. From start to finish, we are available to help and support you.

This starts at the beginning of your journey when you come to your initial consultation. We spend time getting to know you, allaying any anxiety or apprehension you may have and answering any questions. We also spend time explaining all aspects of the medication to you, describing how to get the most from them, outlining side effects and how to mitigate them, discussing how to know when to increase stength and providing information/advice on lifestyle and nutrition to get the best results. 

Once you start your medication at home, we are always on hand to help support you. Unlike online providers who are nameless, with generic online forms, our named clinical and support teams are on hand, every day to help and guide you.

Should you need anything at all, you can call us any time, WhatsApp us any time, email us any time, or even pop into the clinic any time. This could be questions about side effects, worries about results or really anything at all! We want every client to know that we are here for them and never want them to feel like they are on their journey alone. 

Yes, we can help with side effects. Like any other medications, both Mounjaro and Wegovy have the potential to cause side effects. 

During your initial Face to Face consultation, Aidan will spend some time with you explaining common side effects, what to expect and how to deal with them. 

If you develop side effects that become particularly bad, we can prescribe medications to help relieve them as part of our service, free of charge.

The key point here is to communicate with us clearly if you develop any problems or worrying side effects. This allows us to best support and guide you.
