The Weight Doctors® Compass
Five questions, initial guidance.
1Weight-loss goal
2BMI
3Medication
4Your goal
5Procedure
Question 1 of 5
How much would you like to lose?
Question 2 of 5
Your current BMI
From height and weight – the calculation is done only here on the page, nothing is sent.
Question 3 of 5
Would you want to take medication long-term?
For example, medically supervised pharmacotherapy over a longer period.
With a BMI under 25, you are in the normal weight range. Whether treatment makes sense is something your specialist will clarify – nutrition coaching can support you.
Based on your answers, none of the six paths is a clear match. Nutrition coaching can be a start – your specialist will discuss with you what else may be an option.

First an honest stocktake: what bothers you, and is it really a local fat pad? Then a conversation with a specialist who assesses the skin – where elasticity is low, a lift is sometimes the better answer.

Lipoedema is not a question of lifestyle – it is a disease. And every patient deserves well-founded information on which treatment routes and financing options are open to her.

Der Erstkontakt über die telefonische Beratung mit Birgit war absolut positiv.
Das Gespräch war sehr informativ, alle Fragen konnten besprochen und beantwortet werden und ich habe darüber hinaus noch viele Zusatzinformationen und Erklärungen erhalten.
Die gesamte Gesprächsatnosphäre war unheimlich freundlich und ich hate zu keinem Zeitpunkt das Gefühl, das es einen Zeitdruck gibt oder ich zu etwas „überredet“ werden soll.
Mein Fazit ist, dass ich mich nach dem Gespräch besser beraten fühle, als ich es vorher erwartet hatte.
Vielen Dank dafür

Ik was zo blij met hoe je benaderd wordt en hoe lief en goed ze voor je zorgen. En helemaal met het resultaat wat ik al gehaald heb in nog geen half jaar. Geen enkele vraag is te veel en ze nemen de tijd voor je. Echt een aanrader
CClaudiaon ProvenExpert
Ingreep verliep goed en nazorg eerste weken is accoord maar daarna is er geen nazorg meer tenzij je zelf belt waar geen stimulans van uit gaat. Ik vind de nazorg onvoldoende en in vergelijking met andere klinieken opvallend weinig. Een digitale groep of iets dergelijks met een dietist zou veel beter zijn. Ik ben veel minder afgevallen dan verwacht en dat heeft meer dan 1000 euro per kilo gekost.

Patients, our team, insights into clinics and practices: on Instagram and YouTube we show what losing weight with Weight Doctors® looks like.
Consultation, therapy and aftercare close to home – with the Weight Doctors® Nationalklinik in Wertheim as the centre, in Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, South Africa and Namibia. Choose a place on the map.
Your question isn’t listed? Your specialist will take time for it during the consultation.
How can I get a consultation with Weight Doctors?
The easiest way is through our appointment portal: there you choose the location, treatment and preferred appointment directly. You can also reach us by telephone, by email or in the chat here on the page. The consultation is no obligation.
Why should I have my treatment at Weight Doctors?
At Weight Doctors®, specialists in surgery and internal medicine work together as a well-coordinated team with one focus: losing weight for the long term. They accompany you from consultation through treatment to aftercare. You can see who will treat you under Specialists, and further reasons under 13 best reasons for Weight Doctors®.
Is Weight Doctors reputable?
Yes. You are treated by specialists – you can see who will treat you, with their name and career, under Specialists. More than 3,000 patients have rated the Weight Doctors® Group, with ProvenExpert’s “Top Recommendation” award every year since 2022, plus the MyBody certificate. You can read how others have fared under Success stories. The consultation is without obligation, and there are no hidden costs.
How does support before and after treatment work?
Depending on the scope of services, in person at the location, by telephone, by email or via the Weight Doctors® App; our team gets in touch with you regularly. More under Weight Doctors® 360°.
Why should I undergo endoscopic treatment?
Endoscopic therapies such as the Weight Doctors SLEEVE®, hydroGMA or the gastric balloon are performed via the mouth and oesophagus – without an incision in the abdomen and without scars, usually as an outpatient. We clarify which therapy suits you in the consultation.
Will I have to go hungry during treatment?
No, going hungry is not the goal. Our treatments address the feeling of hunger itself: the gastric balloon and the Weight Doctors SLEEVE® help you feel full sooner, while GLP-1 and hydroGMA target the hormones that control hunger. In everyday life, your doctor and the Weight Doctors® App support you.
Can I be treated if I have gastritis or other stomach problems?
That depends on your symptoms and on the treatment. Tell us in the consultation which symptoms you have and which medicines you take – your specialist will then check whether and when a treatment is an option for you. Sometimes, for example, an inflammation has to heal first. Please have acute stomach pain checked by your GP first.
Does German statutory health insurance cover the costs?
For the Weight Doctors SLEEVE®, BARIATRICS, RESHAPE and REVISION, there is a chance of cost coverage where there is a medical indication in line with the guidelines. The gastric balloon and hydroGMA are self-pay services, and German statutory health insurers do not currently pay for GLP-1 therapy. More under Health insurance and cost coverage.
Can I pay for my treatment in instalments?
Yes, through our partner medipay you spread the cost over monthly instalments (subject to a credit check). How this works can be found under Payment in instalments.
The first step is a conversation: choose your treatment, location and appointment online here – consultation on site, by video or by phone.
