- The Programme

A real relationship, not a subscription.

Weight management works best with structured clinical support. We see you every month, in branch or by video – same pharmacist throughout. Most patients stay on the programme for 12–24 months.

45-minute initial consultation

Pharmacist runs through your medical history, BMI, weight-loss history, goals and contraindications. We discuss the right approach for you, together.

Monthly review

Every month, in branch or by video. We check your progress, support side-effect management, and adjust your plan. Same pharmacist throughout - no rotating call centre.

Pharmacist-led care

If treatment progresses, decisions are made by a registered pharmacist who knows your history - not by an algorithm. We move at the pace your body can handle.

Private & confidential

Every consultation is in our pharmacy’s private consultation room, behind a closed door. Discreet from the moment you walk in.

- Treatment options

Three licensed options. Discussed in your consultation.

MediPill’s pharmacists may discuss MHRA-licensed prescription treatments with eligible patients during the consultation. Treatment decisions are made together, based on your health profile, medical history and goals. These now include a once-daily tablet as well as weekly injections – a needle-free option, assessed in exactly the same way.
- How it works

From pre-screening to your first consult.

Eligibility is decided by a pharmacist before we book anything. Most patients are confirmed within one working day.

Pre-screen

Fill our 5-minute pre-screening form online. We ask about BMI, weight-loss history, medical conditions and any contraindications.

Review

A pharmacist reviews your answers within one working day. If you’re clinically eligible, we call you to discuss next steps.

In branch or by video

Your 45-minute initial consultation is at whichever of our four Oxford branches suits you, or by video call, on a day that works for you.

- Step one · 5 minutes

Start your pre-screening.

A short online form covers everything our pharmacist needs to check eligibility. If you qualify, we call you back to arrange your 45-minute consultation, in branch or by video. Takes about 5 minutes. Reviewed by a UK-registered pharmacist. Decision within one working day. No charge for pre-screening.
- Questions

Things patients ask first.

Adults aged 18+ with a BMI of 30 or above, or 27+ with a weight-related condition such as type 2 diabetes, sleep apnoea or high blood pressure. Pregnancy, breastfeeding and a small number of medical conditions rule out treatment. The pre-screening form covers all of this and a pharmacist reviews every submission.
Most patients stay on the programme for 12–24 months to reach a stable target weight and form sustainable habits. We talk through a step-down plan together when you’re close to your goal.
NHS access for weight-management treatment is currently limited and gated through tier-3 specialist clinics with long waits. Private clinical consultation through MediPill gives same-day decisions after your initial 45-minute consult. Cost is the consultation plus any prescribed treatment – no subscription.
Scheduled weight-management clinics run at all four of our Oxford branches: Botley, Headington, Summertown and Deddington. Pharmacist availability varies; we’ll match you to the most convenient slot when we call after your pre-screening.
Pharmacist-led weight management is clinical care, not a subscription. A monthly review, in branch or by video, lets your pharmacist check your progress, side effects and overall wellbeing – and adjust the plan in real time. The same pharmacist throughout means continuity that a call centre cannot match.
Online weight-management services typically rely on questionnaires and remote prescribing. At MediPill a pharmacist sees you at every consultation – in our private consultation room or on a live video call – and you collect your medicine in person from the branch you choose. Discreet, personal and accountable.
