Problem
Many people struggle to lose weight and keep it off due to a lack of integrated medical support, leaving them without safe prescribing oversight or the behavioural guidance needed for lasting results. Access to effective weight loss medication is often fragmented from the diet, exercise, and psychological support required to achieve sustainable outcomes.
Solution
Slimmr provides a comprehensive, UK-regulated weight loss programme that combines clinically prescribed medication with ongoing 1:1 support from healthcare professionals. The service pairs GLP-1 and other weight management medications with monthly check-ins, dietician guidance, and specialist psychotherapy to address both the physiological and psychological drivers of weight gain. Patients complete an online consultation and NHS Summary Care Record check to determine eligibility, after which UK clinicians prescribe and monitor treatment, adjusting doses as needed. The programme emphasises a whole-person approach, integrating medication with mindset coaching, movement plans, and lasting healthy habit formation to help patients achieve clinically significant weight loss of 15-22% over 52-72 weeks.
Target Audience
Primary customers are UK adults with obesity or weight-related health conditions who are seeking medically supervised weight loss treatment, including those who have struggled with traditional dieting or who have emotional or psychological factors affecting their weight.
