Can I access private weight management treatment if I don't qualify on the NHS?
Eligible adults can access clinician-led treatment online, with medication prescribed only after assessment and no subscription required, New Health said.
New Health, a GPhC-registered pharmacy, provides online weight management for adults not eligible for NHS care, offering clinically-supported treatment without in-person appointments or long-term subscription contracts.
Many adults consider prescription treatment after finding that diet and lifestyle changes alone have not achieved desired results; approved prescription medicines are not a 'gimmick' but require assessment by a qualified clinician.
Eligible patients upload photos and data for vetting by an in-house medical team to ensure clinical suitability; Juno, a WhatsApp based AI, fields inquiries 24/7 and escalates to a human clinician when necessary.
Approved prescription medicines may help reduce appetite and feelings of hunger, sometimes referred to as 'food noise,' and are intended to be used alongside healthy eating and physical activity rather than replacing lifestyle changes.
New Health customers are not tied to long-term contracts, providing flexibility for those who may change their minds. Always discuss health concerns with a qualified professional before beginning any treatment plan.
