Weight Loss

If you need help achieving a healthy weight, turn to the consultants at Cleveland Clinic London. We offer personalised solutions that can improve the way you look and feel. Our comprehensive approach can also reduce the impact of obesity-related complications, like diabetes, helping you live a longer, healthier life.

The path to your ideal weight is as unique as you are. Experts at Cleveland Clinic London are here for you with weight loss plans that put your goals within reach. Even if other methods haven’t worked, we can help you succeed.

Highlights of our services include:

• Multidisciplinary approach: You have access to bariatric surgeons, endocrinologists, dietitians, psychologists and nurses who specialise in helping people lose weight. We work together to tailor a weight loss plan to your needs.
• Personalised care: We perform a comprehensive assessment to learn about your medical history and weight loss challenges. The team explains the lifestyle, medical or surgical options that may be right for you and how they work. We then tailor therapies to help give you the best chances for long-term weight loss.
• Medical weight loss: An endocrinologist with expertise in complex obesity guides nonsurgical weight loss services. Our team actively participates in research that gives you access to new medications before they’re widely available.
• Bariatric surgery: Cleveland Clinic London is home to some of the U.K.’s leading bariatric surgeons. They offer a depth of experience in keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery, which uses small incisions for a quicker recovery. You can choose from several options, including gastric band, sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), mini bypass (anastomosis gastric bypass), gastric balloon and endoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Explore bariatric surgery.
• Holistic approach: We help you lose weight and treat obesity-related complications that may be standing in your way. These efforts include managing chronic conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease and sleep apnoea. The team coordinates services with additional Cleveland Clinic London consultants in many specialties whenever necessary.

You undergo a thorough evaluation that helps us learn more about your health, diet and lifestyle. We may recommend blood tests to detect metabolic disease or other issues that can make losing weight more difficult. Care may also include a psychological assessment to check for anxiety or depression.

We typically see new patients within a week. You may be eligible for a virtual consultation if you don’t live in the London area. We also help coordinate travel for international patients through Global Patient Services.
