Weight Loss Clinic in Longridge
Mounjaro and Wegovy prescribed twenty minutes south-west of Longridge at Frenchwood Pharmacy on Ruskin Street.
Twenty minutes — worth the drive for Mounjaro or Wegovy on-site.
Both Mounjaro (tirzepatide) and Wegovy (semaglutide) are available, prescribed at the appropriate starting dose and escalated month-by-month. The free initial consultation covers eligibility under NICE guidance (BMI ≥30, or ≥27.5 with a weight-related condition), medical history, and a realistic conversation about what to expect at 6 and 12 months.
NHS weight-management services can prescribe these medicines too, but waiting lists run 12–24 months. If you want to start this month, we'll have you screened and prescribed in one appointment.
