Here to help you lose it.
We combine clinically proven prescription-only medical treatment with ongoing support from a specialist weight-loss qualified GP every step of the journey.
It begins with a free online consultation and a discussion of suitable options.
Your Doctor through the weight loss journey
Dr Nisa is a London-based GP who appears regularly in the media discussing a wide range of health topics. After many years supporting patients who struggled with weight management using traditional methods, she developed a specialist interest in medical weight management and has attained a specialist accreditation in the medical management of overweight and obesity.
She founded White Giraffe to offer a UK-based weight loss management clinic combining expert clinical guidance from a specialist GP, regular online consultations, and access to prescription-only licensed weight-management treatments.
All treatment decisions are made by a GMC-registered GP, and medications are prescribed only if suitable for you following a full medical assessment.
Information on weight loss medications
The licensed weight-management medicines are prescription-only and are only supplied after a full medical assessment and passing eligibility.
Current UK regulations do not permit advertising of prescription-only weight-management medicines. This limits the level of detail we can provide on our website including mentioning the names of medicines by brand or generic name or how they are administered into the body. As a regulated service, White Giraffe Clinic seeks to follow these rules strictly. Full information about treatment options, including risks, side-effects, and suitability, is provided during a clinical consultation.
The weight loss medicines typically mimic naturally occurring hormones involved in regulating appetite and supporting healthy blood-sugar control. They use a hormone to regulate your appetite to make you feel fuller - leading to eating less and a calorie deficit, thereby reducing weight. Studies have shown these medicines to support weight loss when used alongside lifestyle measures and under medical supervision.
They are not suitable for everyone, and eligibility is determined by a doctor taking into account your individual circumstances including medical history, current health conditions and individual risk factors. Our doctor will discuss risks, benefits, side effects and alternatives with you.
These medications are typically suitable for people aged 18–75 with a high BMI. They are not suitable if you’re pregnant or planning to get pregnant.
