It’s not a quick fix but there are just three simple steps to putting your struggle with a long term weight problem behind you:
1. Research. Find out all you can from websites and newspapers about the weight loss treatments available to prepare you for initial discussions with healthcare professionals
2. Consultation. This is your chance to get your questions answered, discuss your weight loss goals and identify the treatment
that suits you best
3. Your decision to proceed is the start of life long change. The Weight Loss Clinic team is available to support your weight loss journey and help you reduce the risks of obesity related illnesses

Weight Loss Clinic
offers a choice of weight loss procedures including intragastric
balloons, laparoscopic adjustable gastric band, gastric bypass
and sleeve gastrectomy, together with a comprehensive support
and aftercare package to help people achieve their weight loss
goals. Aftercare programmes are also available for those who
have had treatment elsewhere.
It is important for anyone considering bariatric surgery to
understand the many medical, psychological, behavioural, and
financial aspects of the treatment. For your recovery to be
successful, you will need to make some lifelong changes. Some of
the changes may seem difficult, but the result can be permanent
weight reduction and overall improved health.
Before attending a consultation with our team, we require a
referral from your GP or you can ask us for a self-referral
form.
We know that surgery is a big decision so want to ensure that
you are comfortable to proceed, comfortable with the procedure
and confident about the outcome.
While this website can provide you with information about the
range of procedures available, a detailed discussion with
consultant David Hewin will determine the right course of
treatment for you. Mr Hewin will listen to your story,
understand your weight loss goals, discuss the treatment that is
suitable for you and carry out a detailed pre-operative
assessment to ensure that it is the right choice for you.
