Dr Helen Medical has launched in Ringwood, offering a wide range of services including same-day GP appointments, weight loss treatments, travel vaccinations, ENT services, paediatrics and dermatology.

The centre is run by two GPs and mothers, Dr Helen and Dr Lexi, who said the idea came from conversations with patients.

Dr Helen said: “As busy working mums, Dr Lexi and I share a deep passion for delivering evidence-based, up-to-date and empowering healthcare.

“We’re committed to helping people live healthier, fuller lives—supported by knowledge, compassion and practical care that fits into real life.”

The clinic operates from the same location as Dr Helen Allergy and is a sister service.

Dr Lexi highlighted a growing need for safe, medically supervised weight loss care.

She said: “At Dr Helen Medical, those seeking help with weight loss can see our specialist lifestyle GP who can ensure well-rounded, holistic advice is given.”

She also raised concerns about the “rapid rise” in weight loss treatments being offered online without proper medical consultation.

The clinic aims to offer convenient, accessible care for individuals and families in the community.
