HARROGATE · YARM · REMOTE

Losing weight is not a matter of willpower

Appetite, metabolism and fat storage are controlled by systems that may not respond to determination alone. That is why medical help works where trying harder has not. Start with a free conversation with the doctor, twenty to thirty minutes — no cost, no commitment.

Doctor-led throughout

What doctor-led actually means

One doctor, throughout

You see Dr Kavadas at every appointment. Not a rotating team, and not a form reviewed by someone you never speak to.

Assessment before treatment

Up to 60 minutes on your medical and lifestyle history, blood tests where they are needed, and observations taken properly.

Medication only where it fits

Prescription medication is one option among several. It is issued after assessment, when it is safe and appropriate — never on request.

Review that keeps going

The doctor stays in regular contact by message or phone between appointments, as often as you need. Reviews every four weeks at first, then less often as things settle. Your GP is kept informed with your consent.

Which of these sounds like you?

People arrive at very different points. Pick the one that fits and it will take you to the detail.

I want to know about prescribed weight management treatment

Whether you are considering it for the first time or already taking it and want a doctor keeping an eye on things.

I am thinking about stopping

Coming off prescribed weight management treatment, or stopped already and seeing the weight return. There is support for both.

I need blood tests

Doctor-taken bloods in clinic, or fingerprick testing sent to you. As part of a pathway or on their own.

Need a blood draw, or bringing a Medichecks kit?

You can book it online — there is no need to send a message first. Blood draw and Medichecks kit appointments are booked through our sister clinic, Medical Wellness, which opens in a new tab.

How it works

1

A free 20–30 minute appointment

Remote, and it costs nothing. The doctor explains what is possible and answers your questions before you decide anything.

3

A plan, and treatment if it suits you

Dietary and lifestyle support, with prescription medication where it is clinically appropriate and safe to begin.

2

Your first assessment

Up to 60 minutes. History, previous attempts, weight, height, waist and blood pressure, plus blood tests if they are needed.

4

Ongoing review

Reviews every four weeks at first, then less often as your treatment settles — with contact by message or phone in between whenever you need it.

Dr Vas Kavadas, SCOPE certified weight loss doctor

YOUR DOCTOR

Dr Vas Kavadas

Dr Kavadas is a doctor trained specifically in nutrition, obesity and weight management, and is SCOPE certified by the World Obesity Federation. She carries out every assessment herself and stays with you through the whole pathway.

Her approach starts from the position that obesity is a medical condition rather than a personal failing — and that the stigma attached to it is one of the reasons people put off asking for help.
