Questions people ask about Stanmore
Do I need to be registered with a GP in Harrow to attend?
No. You do not need to be registered with a practice in the borough, or with any particular surgery, to book a weight management consultation. Stanmore patients keep their own GP and travel across for the appointment, about 3.5 miles west on the A410 London Road and Uxbridge Road, roughly 14 minutes by car.
What happens at the first consultation?
The pharmacist records height, weight, BMI and waist measurement, checks your blood pressure and reviews medical history and medicines. You then discuss your goals and daily routine before deciding whether a supervised programme is appropriate. Allow about 20 minutes for this first visit.
How long do follow-up reviews take?
Follow-up reviews take 10 to 15 minutes. They cover weight, BMI and blood pressure, then focus on how your eating and activity plan is going. For Stanmore patients the round trip along the A410 usually takes less than an hour in total.
Is my BMI checked at every appointment?
Yes. BMI is measured at the first consultation and rechecked at each review, alongside waist measurement and blood pressure. BMI is only one part of the picture, so the pharmacist always reads it in the context of your medical history and general health.
How soon after the consultation can I start?
If the assessment shows a supervised programme is appropriate, the pharmacist explains the plan and next steps at the same visit. Timing then depends on your own circumstances and any checks that need completing first. Nothing is arranged before the full assessment is done.
Is there parking near the clinic?
Yes, there is parking near 106 High Street in Harrow on the Hill, which suits Stanmore patients driving in along Uxbridge Road. The clinic is also about a 2 minute walk from Harrow-on-the-Hill station if you prefer to travel by train.
Avni Kanabar is a GPhC-registered pharmacist at Harrow Clinics on Harrow on the Hill High Street, providing pharmacist-led travel health, weight management and blood testing for the HA community.
