Doctor-Led
Weight Loss
Online in Australia

Online medical weight loss treatment involves speaking with a qualified doctor via telehealth to assess your health, discuss treatment options, and create a personalised weight management plan.

Depending on your needs, this may include prescription treatment, pathology testing, lifestyle support, and ongoing GP follow-up care.

If your doctor determines that prescription treatment is clinically appropriate after your video consultation, they can issue an eScript sent directly to your phone.

Due to Australian TGA and AHPRA regulations, we cannot name specific medications on our website — your GP will discuss suitable options during your appointment, including the potential benefits and risks.
