Why Burntwood Clinic

Real, local support from a pharmacist who gets to know you.

No crash diets and no one-size-fits-all plans. Just a private conversation, a plan that suits your everyday life and someone to check in with as you go.

  • Private pharmacist consultation

    Talk face to face with a pharmacist prescriber in a private room — about your goals, your health and what's worked or not worked before.

  • A plan that fits your routine

    Practical, realistic changes to eating and activity, built around your work, family and the foods you actually enjoy.

  • Regular check-ins

    Book follow-up appointments to talk about how things are going and adjust your plan when life gets in the way.

  • Treatment options, where appropriate

    If clinically appropriate, your pharmacist prescriber can discuss treatment options, including prescription medicines, as part of a plan with diet and activity support.

  • Your wider health in view

    We look at your medical history and any medicines you take, and suggest you speak to your GP if something needs their attention.

  • On Chasetown High Street

    Easy to reach from Burntwood, including Chasetown, Chase Terrace, Boney Hay and Hammerwich — with free parking nearby and Saturday mornings.

How it works

What happens at your consultation.

Everything happens in a private room at Chasetown Pharmacy, at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

  1. Step 1: Book your consultation

    Book online or call the pharmacy. Same-day appointments are often available, and we're open Saturday mornings.

  2. Step 2: Talk it through, privately

    Allow about XX minutes

    Your pharmacist asks about your goals, medical history, any medicines you take and what you've tried before. There's no pressure and no judgement.

  3. Step 3: Agree a personal plan

    Together you'll agree practical steps on food and activity. If clinically appropriate, your pharmacist prescriber can discuss treatment options as part of that plan. If the programme isn't right for you, we'll explain why and suggest where to go next, such as your GP.

  4. Step 4: Check-ins and aftercare

    Regular follow-up appointments let you talk about how things are going and adjust your plan. Between visits, you can call the pharmacy with any questions.

    I was nervous about talking to anyone about my weight, but Nimesh made it so easy. No lectures, just a proper conversation about my routine and what I could realistically change. It's nice having someone local to check in with.

    Had tried apps on my own for years. The consultation was relaxed and private, and I came away with a plan that actually works around shift work. Straightforward about costs too.

    Busy family life means we never had time for ourselves. The pharmacist helped us think about simple changes we could make together as a family. Free parking and a Saturday appointment made it easy.

    Really appreciated how thorough they were about my other medicines before suggesting anything. Honest, kind and never pushy. Good to have this service right here in Chasetown.

Common questions

Weight management, answered honestly.

Can't see your question? Call the clinic on 01543 682921 and speak to a pharmacist in confidence.

  • You'll sit down with a pharmacist prescriber in a private room at Chasetown Pharmacy. They'll ask about your goals, your medical history, any medicines you take and what you've tried before, and may take some basic measurements such as your height and weight. Together you'll talk through practical changes to eating and activity and whether our ongoing programme is right for you.

  • If clinically appropriate, your pharmacist prescriber can discuss treatment options, including prescription medicines, as part of a plan with diet and activity support. Whether any treatment is suitable depends on a full assessment of your health, and it isn't right for everyone. We never decide this before we've met you.

  • Consultations are carried out by Nimesh Vansia, our Superintendent Pharmacist and an Independent Prescriber (GPhC 2086824), who has a special interest in weight management. You can check his registration on the GPhC register.

  • A consultation is £XX and the monthly support programme is from £XX a month. Your pharmacist will confirm exactly what's included and the price at your consultation, before any treatment goes ahead.

  • The programme is for adults aged 18 and over. It isn't suitable if you're pregnant, breastfeeding or planning a pregnancy. If you have, or have had, an eating disorder, we'd gently encourage you to speak to your GP first so you can get the most appropriate support.

  • We'll explain why, in plain language, and talk about other options — for example general lifestyle advice or speaking to your GP. You won't be pressured into anything.

  • Your pharmacist will agree a check-in schedule with you at your consultation, based on your plan and what suits you. Between appointments you can call the pharmacy on 01543 682921 with any questions.
