Weight Management

Achieve Your Health Goals with Expert Weight Management Support

Weight is about more than just diet and exercise – it’s about finding a sustainable, healthy approach that works for you. With over 67% of Australian adults classified as overweight or obese (Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, 2023), expert support can make all the difference.

Why Professional Weight Management matters

Medically guided weight management and lifestyle support can enable patients to achieve their goals. Goals do not have to be weight focussed – a ‘healthy at every size’ approach avoids the stigma of body size and refocusses on change aimed to achieve health benefits.

The GPs who consult from Blackburn Clinic offer:

  • Personalised Health Assessments – Understanding your unique needs and challenges
  • Medical Support & Prescriptions – If required, including medications for weight management
  • Nutritional & Lifestyle Guidance – Evidence-based strategies for long-term success
  • Metabolic & Hormonal Health Checks – Addressing underlying factors that may impact weight
  • Ongoing Support & Monitoring – Helping you stay on track with regular follow-ups

Weight loss of just 5-10% of total body weight has been shown to significantly reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke (Diabetes Australia, 2023).

To discuss your own weight management please book a standard consult with your GP.
