The Tier 3 weight management service provides intensive support to patients referred, for a period of 12 weeks, with a maintenance support period of 9 months. This includes using an App including regular contact with healthcare professionals via telephone and virtual support, or via a face to face group format. The programme runs for a 12-month period.
