27/04/2025 by Dr Marcus Gleave

More than one in four adults in the UK now live with obesity—weight management is top of mind for many in Basingstoke. If you’ve heard of Wegovy and wondered how to access this effective new weight loss treatment, you’re not alone. The latest weight management medications, including Wegovy (semaglutide), are gaining real momentum among people who struggle to lose weight on their own. Here’s what you need to know about obtaining a private Wegovy prescription as a resident of Basingstoke, and how the Mayfield Clinic approach supports long-term success through safe, medically-led care.

Can I Get Wegovy in Basingstoke?

Yes—although Wegovy isn’t prescribed on the NHS except in specific circumstances, you can access it privately through a local private GP. At Mayfield Clinic, our experienced team provides consultation and prescription services for weight management drugs to patients from Basingstoke and the surrounding area. We invite patients to our Newbury practice, a quick and easy journey for those living in Basingstoke.

Wegovy Prescription: The Mayfield Clinic Process

Starting Wegovy involves a straightforward but thorough process. Book an appointment online using our Book now button. For Mayfield Clinic members, bookings can also be made by phone or WhatsApp for extra convenience. During your private GP consultation, your medical history and current health will be carefully reviewed. Baseline blood tests are performed on-site at our Newbury clinic.

If you meet the medical criteria, we’ll talk you through Wegovy (semaglutide) therapy, its mechanism (as a GLP-1 receptor agonist), expected weight loss benefits, and possible side effects. We demonstrate how to safely administer the weekly injection, and our team ensures you feel comfortable and well-informed before starting treatment independently at home.

“Our goal at Mayfield Clinic is to provide Basingstoke patients rapid access to reliable Wegovy prescriptions, backed up by the continuity and trust of seeing the same GP for every step of your weight loss journey.”

Ongoing Support and Monitoring

Monthly follow-up consultations allow us to monitor your progress, check results of any ongoing blood tests, and make necessary dose adjustments. Our multi-disciplinary team, which includes psychologists and exercise therapists, offers further guidance—because sustainable weight management is rarely achieved by medication alone.

Unique to Basingstoke Patients

Notably, many Basingstoke patients are surprised to learn their most convenient and specialist private GP is just minutes away in Newbury. For those looking to lose weight and considering Wegovy, this short commute can be the first step to a healthier, more confident lifestyle.
