Before your appointment

Preparing for your visit

A little preparation helps the doctor see the full picture, and it depends on the appointment you have booked.

Nutrition consultation

What to bring

  • Any recent labs you have. Bringing them saves time; if none are available, the doctor will specify what is needed after the consultation.
  • The names and doses of any medicines you currently take, so the doctor can review them with your health history.
Abdominal ultrasound

Preparation instructions

  • Fast for six to eight hours before the appointment.
  • Water is fine during the fasting period.
  • Avoid fizzy drinks and foods that cause bloating on the day before the scan.

Before weight-loss injections

The baseline lab panel

These tests are requested before injections begin if, after the consultation, the doctor decides that treatment is suitable for your case.

  • CBC
  • TSH, FT3 and FT4
  • Urea and creatinine
  • AST and ALT
  • HbA1c and fasting blood sugar (FBS)
