What Are the Effects of Obesity?
Carrying excess weight can lead to serious health conditions, including type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, Stroke and Certain cancers (e.g., breast and bowel cancer).
Beyond these medical risks, obesity can also cause: breathlessness and excessive sweating, joint and back pain, low confidence and self-esteem, snoring and fatigue, difficulty being physically active, feelings of isolation and mental health struggles, including depression.
At Medina Chemist, we understand the challenges of weight management and provide expert support to help you achieve a healthier lifestyle.
Our Weight Loss Programme
Our approach is personalised and medically supervised, ensuring that you receive the right treatment plan based on your health, lifestyle, and goals.
How It Works
Your journey begins with an initial consultation, either in-person or over the phone, where we assess your medical history, current lifestyle, and weight loss ambitions. Based on this, we create a customised treatment plan, incorporating dietary guidance, exercise recommendations, and potential medication options.
We provide regular monitoring and support to track progress, make adjustments, and keep you motivated. Once you reach your target weight, our Longevity Programme helps maintain your results with a focus on long-term well-being.
Note: Medication is not always necessary. Our specialists will determine the best approach for you.
