We understand there has been significant media coverage around weight loss injections and many patients are keen to find out more. At present our GP practice is unable to prescribe these medications as we are awaiting formal guidance from our local commissioning body.

We appreciate your patience and we will provide further updates as soon as local prescribing criteria abd procedures are confirmed.
