Dr. Tendai Tagarisa

Founder & Lead Bariatric Doctor

Dr. Tendai founded The Weight Loss Clinic after recognising a fundamental gap in healthcare: patients were being given generic advice that didn't account for their unique biology, psychology, or life circumstances.

With over 12 years in clinical medicine and public health, she built a programme that treats the whole person — combining medical rigour with genuine compassion and cultural sensitivity.

Patient results

Real people, real change

These are the words of patients who chose a different approach. Their results are real, not staged.

"I had tried everything before — keto, intermittent fasting, even pills. Nothing stuck. The Weight Loss Clinic was different. They looked at my whole life and built a plan I could actually keep. I've never felt better."

Sarah M.

Patient — 14 weeks

-22 kg

"The questionnaire at the start is thorough but it genuinely changed everything. My practitioner knew exactly what my triggers were before we even met. The booking system is seamless and the whole experience feels premium."

David K.

Patient — 9 weeks

-11.5 kg

"Dr. Tendai approved my plan personally and I felt seen from day one. The psychological support module was unexpected but completely transformed how I relate to food. I can't recommend this clinic highly enough."

Common questions

Everything you need to know before you start.

You sign up, complete our comprehensive health questionnaire, and a doctor reviews your profile within 24–48 hours. Once approved, you're matched with a practitioner and can start booking appointments.

We offer both. Many patients complete their programme entirely virtually via video consultations. In-person options are available for weigh-ins, lab reviews, and initial consultations.

Every programme is medically supervised by a doctor, not a wellness coach. We use your full health profile — including questionnaire data, labs, and mental health screening — to build a plan that is genuinely personalised.

Most patients complete their primary programme in 12–24 weeks. Ongoing support and maintenance programmes are available and recommended to sustain long-term results.

Medications are only prescribed when clinically appropriate, after a thorough medical review. The programme works with or without medication — the goal is sustainable lifestyle change.

Pricing depends on the programme length and services included. Book a free discovery consultation to discuss options. We believe in transparent, accessible pricing with no hidden fees.
