Weight-management consultation pack: who it is for
Assessment plus the first follow-ups, or follow-ups only if the plan has already started. What the pack includes, and what it does not promise.
Medical weight management does not end in one consultation. The starter pack joins the first assessment and the first follow-ups, so the plan can be adjusted over the weeks: tolerance, tests, habits and, if it exists, pharmacological treatment.
It makes sense if you are starting now and already know you will need to come back. It does not make sense if you only want “a prescription and to disappear”: that request is not the clinical act, and the pack does not turn it into a guarantee of medication or a number on the scales.
Anyone who has already had the assessment and is on treatment should use the follow-up pack, not the starter pack. Booking the wrong pack delays the calendar. Each pack page states that boundary.
Included consultations stay available to book when the doctor sets the interval. They are not a three-month challenge with a prize at the end. If treatment is not indicated, follow-up visits still serve to guide the possible plan: tests, habits, reassessment.
If you do not yet know whether there is an indication, you can book only the first consultation. The pack structures follow-up; it is not a shortcut around assessment.
Frequently asked questions
Does the pack guarantee I will lose weight?
No. It guarantees the included consultations, with assessment and adjustment. The weight result depends on the clinical case and is not promised.
I am already on treatment. Which pack?
The follow-up pack, if the first assessment has been done. If you have not been assessed in Portugal, start with the starter pack or the first consultation on its own.
Can I book only the first consultation without a pack?
Yes. The pack is optional, for people who want the first follow-ups already included.
