Wegovy is indicated for weight management in adults and adolescents older than 12 years of age.

It provides transformative weight loss, together with lifestyle and dietary changes.

It has been brought to my attention several times over the last one week that some people are under the false impression that my practice has moved premises.

I’m still based at:
487 Brickfield Rd
Overport

The only Dr Ramkissoon ( GP ) in overport / Springfield, is myself.

Please don’t confuse my practice with any other.
