Achieving and maintaining a healthy weight is about more than just dieting. At Lambert Medical Practice, we believe in a comprehensive approach that combines medical expertise with sustainable lifestyle changes.

The Importance of Medical Supervision in Weight Loss

Embarking on a weight loss journey under medical supervision offers several advantages:

  • Personalised approach based on your health history and needs
  • Identification and management of underlying health issues affecting weight
  • Safe and effective strategies tailored to your body
  • Continuous monitoring and adjustment of your plan
  • Access to advanced treatments when appropriate

Our Comprehensive Approach

At Lambert Medical Practice, our weight loss programme includes:

  1. Thorough Medical Assessment: We start with a comprehensive health check to understand your overall health status and identify any underlying conditions.
  2. Personalised Nutrition Plan: Our experts create a balanced, sustainable eating plan tailored to your preferences and nutritional needs.
  3. Customised Exercise Regimen: We design a safe and effective exercise programme suited to your fitness level and health condition.
  4. Behavioural Therapy: Address emotional eating and develop healthy habits with our psychological support.
  5. Medical Treatments: When appropriate, we may recommend medications or other medical interventions to support your weight loss efforts.
  6. Ongoing Support and Monitoring: Regular check-ins and adjustments to ensure you're on track and addressing any challenges.

The Role of Sustainable Lifestyle Changes

While medical expertise is crucial, long-term success in weight management relies on sustainable lifestyle changes. We focus on:

  • Developing healthy eating habits that you can maintain long-term
  • Finding physical activities that you enjoy and can incorporate into your daily routine
  • Addressing stress management and sleep quality, which play significant roles in weight management
  • Building a supportive environment to reinforce your new healthy habits

Advanced Treatments and Technologies

In some cases, we may recommend advanced treatments to support your weight loss journey:

  • Hormone analysis and treatment
  • Metabolic testing to understand your body's unique needs
  • Body composition analysis for precise progress tracking
  • Prescription medications when clinically appropriate
