Weight management service

If you’re registered with a Lambeth GP, you can ask for a referral to the new weight management service provided by Guy’s and St Thomas' NHS Trust.

This high-quality, individualised service includes:

  • practical sessions to increase physical activity levels
  • education to improve diet and reduce calorie intake.

The combination of education and practice can help users to achieve and maintain a healthy weight.

GP referral

You will need to ask your GP to make a referral for a clinical assessment. You will be assessed on whether the programme is right for you based on:

  • your body mass index (BMI)
  • any long-term health conditions, such as diabetes
  • your motivation to change
  • your motivation to stick to the plan to find your healthy weight.
