About this treatment
The SGH Obesity Centre's Medical Weight Management Programme is one of Singapore's most rigorous and comprehensive approaches to treating obesity as a chronic metabolic disease. Unlike standalone diet programmes or fitness regimes, this programme is medically supervised and delivered by a coordinated team of specialists within Singapore's premier tertiary hospital.
At the core of the programme is an initial consultation with an endocrinologist who conducts a thorough clinical assessment including detailed history taking, physical examination, metabolic investigations, and evaluation of obesity-related comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnoea, and dyslipidaemia. Based on this assessment, a personalised treatment plan is developed that may combine pharmacotherapy, dietary intervention,…
Patients undergo regular follow-up appointments to monitor weight trends, medication response, metabolic markers, and overall health outcomes. The programme uses evidence-based clinical guidelines and draws on the latest research in obesity medicine to adjust treatment plans as patients progress.
