Howell Medical Group

Clinician-led weight loss appointments at Dr Frank's are for adults seeking assessment and support for prescription weight loss treatment. The service is part of Howell Medical Group and operates from Liverpool, with care delivered online through nurse-led assessment and follow-up.

The treatment options named by the clinic are Mounjaro and Wegovy, described as GLP-1 and GIP prescription treatments. Eligibility is assessed online and is based on factors including age, BMI and weight-related conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes and obstructive sleep apnoea.

Specialist nurses support patients on clinician-led pathways, including people with Type 1 Diabetes, Type 2 Diabetes, other medical conditions and those needing long-term weight maintenance. The clinician-led plan includes monthly nurse reviews, wellbeing calls, priority support and dose adjustment guidance.

The service uses a direct-pay model with a partner pharmacy after assessment. Prescriptions are handled through a GPhC-registered partner pharmacy, and the clinic refers to MHRA-approved prescription treatments.

Howell Medical Group Ltd is regulated by the Care Quality Commission. The clinic also provides a BMI calculator and online account tools for patients to manage treatment, track weight and view prescriptions.
