What patients tell us after their consultation
A selection of what patients tell us after their consultation, in their own words on Trustpilot.
Excellent service, I even requested an extension and they kindly agreed and sent a new prescription with no charge at all. That was definitely a highlight, great customer service! Totally recommended.
The care was fast, the doctor answered all my questions and the prescription was practical and quick for collecting the product; the treatment follow-up is also being very effective and attentive.
So far, everything has gone really smoothly. The process was easy, responses were quick and I had no problems getting my prescription. Happy with the service!
What's built into every plan
Consultation and, if appropriate, a prescription
A consultation and, if appropriate, a prescription, so you can collect your treatment at your pharmacy. Your doctor chooses the option that suits your health history and preferences.
Doctor-backed care
EU-licensed doctors review your details and prescribe only if clinically appropriate. After that they're in your private chat whenever a question, a concern or a dose needs adjusting.
Monthly check-ins
Every 28 days your doctor reviews how it's going before your renewal. Changes are never automatic.
Your account
Track your progress, download your e-prescription and message your doctor, from any device.
Treatment options
If treatment is right for you, your doctor explains the options, their benefits and their risks in the consultation. The decision is always a medical one.

How the plan works

The support that makes the difference
If side effects hit. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and constipation are the most common, usually mild and temporary while the dose increases. If they persist, your doctor can adjust your treatment.
Guidance on long-term use. Obesity is a chronic condition. Your doctor works with you on the right decisions, now and later.
Keeping the weight off. Whether you stay on treatment, adjust or step back, your doctor helps you plan the next step.

What to know before your consultation
Who the weight consultation suits
The weight consultation is for adults living with obesity, or with overweight and a weight-related health condition such as high blood pressure. It is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or if you are trying to conceive. Some health histories need in-person care, and in that case the doctor tells you and your consultation fee is refunded. The service does not replace emergency care: for urgent symptoms, call 112.
How the weight consultation works
You answer an online questionnaire about your weight, your health history and anything you currently take. An EU-licensed doctor reviews your answers, may ask follow-up questions in the private chat in your account, and decides whether treatment is appropriate. If it is, you receive an e-prescription to use at a pharmacy of your choice, where you pay for the treatment separately. If it is not, the doctor explains why and your fee is refunded.
Ongoing support from your doctor
Weight management works best as a long-term plan, so your doctor stays with you after the first decision. Before each renewal they review your progress and how you feel, and nothing changes automatically. You can message your doctor in the private chat whenever a question or a new symptom comes up. You can cancel your plan at any time from your account.
