Pharmacist-led weight management

Suitability is confirmed during a clinical assessment, and generally applies where your BMI sits in a raised range or where a weight-related health condition is present. Rather than relying on a single number, our pharmacist looks at your full picture — your health, history and goals — to decide together whether the programme is right for you.

Yes. Every part of the service is led by a qualified pharmacist at our Nantwich Road premises. Your initial assessment, your tailored plan and every follow-up review are handled by a healthcare professional who knows your history, so the support you receive is clinical and personal from start to finish.

Safety guides every decision we make. We take a full medical history, check for anything that could make an approach unsuitable and monitor how you respond throughout your journey. If any element of your plan stops being right for you, we adjust it. This careful, supervised approach is exactly why a clinician-led service matters.

We measure your height and weight to calculate your BMI, discuss your general health, medical conditions and any medicines you take, and explore what you have tried before. It is a genuine clinical conversation, not a sales pitch. Together we then decide whether the programme suits you and agree a realistic, tailored plan.

Yes, regular reviews are a core part of the programme and are included as standard. We check in with you to track progress, work through any sticking points and adjust your plan as your needs change. Lasting results come from steady, ongoing support rather than a single appointment, so you are never left to manage things alone.

Pricing is confirmed during your consultation, once we understand which plan suits you, and there are no hidden fees. Your follow-up reviews are included in the service. Because the right approach depends on your individual assessment, we explain the full cost clearly and openly before you decide to go ahead — there are no surprises.

Yes. The whole service is delivered in person at Crewe Pharmacy, 139-141 Nantwich Road, Crewe. Your assessment, your plan and your reviews all happen face-to-face with our pharmacist. Seeing you in person means we can measure you accurately, talk things through properly and offer the kind of personal support an online form simply cannot.

If the programme is not the right option for you, we will tell you honestly and explain why. Because the service is clinician-led, your wellbeing comes before anything else. We will point you towards more appropriate support or advice so that you still leave with a clear, helpful next step rather than a dead end.

Unlike a remote online service built around a questionnaire, ours is a face-to-face, pharmacist-led programme at your local Crewe pharmacy. You are assessed in person, your plan is genuinely tailored to you and you have a familiar team to return to for every review. That continuity and personal oversight make a real difference to safe, lasting progress.

No. This is a private service you can access directly, with no GP referral required. Simply call us or visit the pharmacy to arrange your assessment. With your permission we may share relevant information with your GP to keep your wider care joined up, but the choice to book is entirely yours.
