Medical Weight Management in Swansea
Expert Medical Weight Management with Dr Sandar Hlaing
I am a SCOPE-certified Medical Doctor (the only weight management certification approved by the World Obesity Federation) with 25 years of experience in helping patients achieve their health goals safely.
Obesity is a multi-factorial condition-it is not a personal choice or failure. Genetics, environment, and lifestyle all play a role. While lifestyle changes are important, they often take longer to achieve sustainable results.
With medication-assisted weight management, you can improve physical health, mental wellbeing, and confidence more effectively while working towards a healthy, maintainable weight.
Personalised Weight Loss Plans for Lasting Results
Your weight loss plan should be practical, enjoyable, and tailored to your life. My approach is person-centred:
- We identify your barriers to weight loss and create a customised, achievable plan.
- The plan considers financial, mental, and lifestyle factors, ensuring it is realistic and sustainable.
- Hormone-based weight management, personalised diet strategies, and medical weight loss programs are integrated to maximise results.
- Focus is on long-term success, not quick fixes, so you maintain a healthy weight while enjoying life.
By combining expert guidance, medication support, and lifestyle adjustments, your journey becomes smoother, more effective, and aligned with your goals.

FAQs – Dr. Sandar Hlaing Women’s Health
What is medical weight management?
Medical weight management is a doctor-led approach to losing weight safely and effectively. It includes personalised plans using medication, nutrition guidance, hormone support, lifestyle changes, and regular monitoring.
How does medical weight loss differ from diet and exercise alone?
Dieting alone often gives temporary results. Medical weight management addresses root causes-like hormones, appetite, metabolism, and underlying conditions-to achieve safer, long-term results.
Which treatments are used in medical weight management?
Treatments may include prescription weight-loss medication, anti-obesity injections, metabolic support, nutrition planning, hormone therapy, blood tests, and lifestyle guidance-based on your needs.
How long will it take to see results?
Some patients see changes within weeks, while others progress steadily over a few months. The goal is safe, sustainable weight loss, not quick fixes.
Am I a candidate for medical weight management?
Adults who struggle to lose weight through diet and exercise, or who have conditions like obesity, diabetes, PCOS, or high blood pressure, often benefit. A consultation confirms suitability.
