You've probably tried a lot already: a diet that initially worked well, but after a few months, it crept back, with hunger, relapses, and the feeling that it was due to a lack of willpower. That's rarely the whole story: hormones, your metabolism, and eating behavior under stress play just as significant a role – factors over which you have limited control and which are reason enough not to face it alone.
That's why medical weight loss combines personal coaching with medical guidance and, where appropriate, supportive medication in the form of injections or pills. This is not a quick fix or a crash diet: the medication supports the process, while you work with your doctor and coach on behavioral changes that last. We stand by your side, but we don't decide for you: the journey remains yours.
Nicolette Lammers is the lead doctor for medical weight loss at The Body Clinic and works from our clinic in Utrecht. She previously researched the role of obesity in the development of diabetes and for years guided people with severe overweight, including around bariatric surgery. She brought that experience with her when weight loss medication caught her attention: for Nicolette, medication is a tool, not an end in itself; lasting change, according to her, mainly arises through sustainable habits.

Then there’s the free consultation: it can be a bit nerve-wracking the first time, but they take plenty of time to offer expert advice, so you can make an informed decision. Really nice. During the treatment, I was put completely at ease, and afterwards I was given a goodie bag to take home."

That varies per person. Weight loss is gradual because the dosage is built up step by step. In studies, participants lost an average of 15 percent of their body weight after more than a year, in combination with a healthy lifestyle.
No, you do not need a referral. You can schedule an intake yourself. During the consultation, our doctor will assess whether medical weight loss is suitable for you.
The costs depend on your treatment program and the medication prescribed by the doctor. An up-to-date overview can be found on our price list. Medical weight loss is usually not covered by your health insurance.
Yes, that is possible. Your consultations with the doctor and coach can also take place online. This way, you can follow your program comfortably from home.
Most people notice their appetite decrease within a few weeks. You'll see gradual results on the scale, especially in the first months of your journey.
After stopping, appetite and weight often return. Therefore, it is important to complete your treatment and make a plan with your doctor for tapering off the medication.
