Important Update - Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) for Weight Loss

You may have seen reports that GPs can now prescribe Mounjaro (tirzepatide) for weight loss.

While some areas of the country may have different local arrangements, GPs in Hertfordshire cannot prescribe Mounjaro for weight loss. Instead, access is only through a dedicated NHS service for people with the highest clinical need.

Thank you for your understanding.

Change to phone and online appointment booking from 1st November 2025

Patients have had access to an automated appointment booking system for some months, however, this will cease from 1st November 2025.

Once this has ceased, we will begin to release a variety of appointments for online booking.  Appointments will show on the NHS App and SystmOnline.  These will include appointments with the Musculoskeletal specialist, phlebotomist, and nurses.
