Medical Weight Management

  • Introduction

    At Dr Kent’s Clinic, we offer safe, evidence-based medical weight management for patients across Dublin, Athlone, and throughout Ireland. Our doctor-led approach supports sustainable weight loss through personalised treatment plans tailored to your health profile, goals, and lifestyle.

    Using modern, clinically guided strategies alongside appropriate lifestyle support, we help patients achieve long-term improvements in health, confidence, and wellbeing.

  • What is Medical Weight Management?

    Medical weight management involves a structured, doctor-supervised approach to weight loss for individuals who have not achieved sufficient results through diet and lifestyle changes alone.

    Treatment plans may include prescription-only injectable therapies such as GLP-1 and GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists, alongside personalised nutritional and lifestyle guidance. These therapies act on appetite-regulating pathways to help reduce hunger, enhance satiety, and support metabolic control.

    All treatment options are discussed in detail during consultation to ensure suitability, safety, and realistic expectations.

  • Why BMI Matters: Key Health Insights for Medical Weight Management

    Body Mass Index (BMI) is commonly used as an initial screening tool to assess weight in relation to height and potential health risks. A higher BMI may be associated with conditions such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and joint problems.

    At Dr Kent’s Clinic, BMI is used as one component of a comprehensive, doctor-led assessment. While it does not account for factors such as muscle mass or fat distribution, it can help identify individuals who may benefit from structured medical weight-management support.

  • The Process

    Your weight-management journey begins with a private medical consultation with Dr Kent. During this appointment, your medical history, current health, BMI, and personal goals are carefully reviewed.

    Based on this assessment, appropriate treatment strategies are discussed, which may include GLP-1-based injectable therapies alongside lifestyle and nutritional guidance. Regular follow-up appointments help ensure your plan remains safe, effective, and aligned with your progress.
