Please note that GPs are currently unable to prescribe weight loss injections on the NHS.
If you choose to access these treatments privately, it is the responsibility of the private provider to assess your suitability for the medication. They must also obtain any relevant medical information directly from you.
You can share this information by:
- Providing access via your NHS App, or
- Making a Subject Access Request (SAR) to obtain a copy of your medical records.
Please be aware that GPs are not obligated to provide approval letters or sign-off forms for private treatments, especially when the medication is not supported by NHS prescribing guidelines.
Thank you for your understanding.
