What an online weight-loss doctor should do
The doctor or clinical team should check BMI, medical history, current medication, contraindications, goals and prior treatment. If medication is suitable, they should explain dose, side effects, follow-up and pharmacy fulfilment.
Consult-only versus programme-led care
Some providers focus on low-cost consultations and repeat prescriptions. Others provide broader programmes with coaching or longer follow-up. The right route depends on whether the user wants cheapest access or higher-touch care.
