If you’ve tried to lose weight before and regained it, you’re not alone. Most people struggle not because they lack willpower, but because they’ve never had access to medical, evidence-based care that targets the true drivers of weight gain.


Perth Weight Clinic is a medical weight-loss clinic in Perth, led by Dr Mark Mellor, a Specialist GP with advanced training in obesity and metabolic health. We provide long, thorough consultations, advanced metabolic testing and personalised treatment plans designed to help you lose weight safely and sustain it long-term.


Here’s what makes our approach different—and why our patients achieve results that last.



A Medical Approach to Weight Loss


Unlike generic diet programs, Perth Weight Clinic uses comprehensive clinical assessment to understand your metabolism, appetite biology and underlying health.


🔬 Body Composition Analysis (BIA)

We assess fat mass, visceral fat, muscle mass and hydration using medical-grade bioimpedance. This helps us track meaningful changes—not just weight.


🔥 Indirect Calorimetry (ECAL)

We measure your metabolic rate and your fat-burning efficiency. This is one of the most accurate tools for understanding why weight loss may have stalled and how to break through plateaus.


❤ Cardiometabolic and Muscle Function Assessment

Early screening for CKM (cardio-kidney-metabolic) disease helps us identify risk factors and tailor treatment to improve long-term health.


🧪 Tailored Medical Investigations

When clinically appropriate, we organise fasting metabolic bloods, nutritional tests, FibroScan liver assessment, sleep studies, bone density imaging and ultrasound.



Personalised Weight-Loss Plans (No One-Size-Fits-All)


Every patient’s weight journey is different. At Perth Weight Clinic, your treatment plan reflects your metabolism, your health and your lifestyle. We may include:


✔ Behavioural and psychological strategies

Understanding hunger signals, cravings, stress eating and relapse patterns is central to sustainable weight loss.


✔ TGA-approved weight-loss medications

As a medical weight-loss clinic, we prescribe approved medications—including GLP-1/GIP therapies—only after a thorough safety assessment.


✔ Nutrition and metabolic optimisation

We focus on a realistic, sustainable approach that supports muscle, reduces hunger and improves metabolic health—without restrictive dieting.


✔ Exercise guidance to protect muscle

Maintaining muscle mass is essential for long-term weight regulation and cardiometabolic health.


✔ Bariatric surgery support

When appropriate, we work closely with leading Perth bariatric surgeons and provide medical support before and after surgery.


Ongoing Support to Prevent Weight Regain


One of the reasons patients choose our clinic is that we help them not just lose weight—but keep it off. Long-term follow-up includes:

  • monitoring metabolic changes

  • protecting muscle mass

  • adjusting medication as physiology changes

  • preventing regain linked to metabolic adaptation

  • supporting emotional and behavioural wellbeing


This continuous care is crucial because obesity is a chronic, relapsing medical condition, not a quick fix.


A Non-Judgemental, Stigma-Free Environment


Many people avoid seeking help due to weight stigma. Perth Weight Clinic was designed to be a safe, compassionate environment where you feel heard and respected. We offer:

  • long appointments

  • supportive, patient-centred care

  • evidence-based treatment free from judgement

  • a focus on health, not blame


Our patients often say it’s the first time they’ve felt genuinely supported in their weight-loss journey.



Why Clients Achieve Better, Longer-Lasting Results With Us


By combining metabolic testing, long appointments, personalised treatment and ongoing clinical support, patients experience:

  • healthier, sustainable weight loss

  • improved metabolism

  • reduced hunger and cravings

  • improved blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol and liver health

  • better sleep, energy and confidence

  • long-term protection against CKM disease


Our clinical model is designed to help you achieve real, measurable, lasting health improvements—not short-term dieting success.

If you’re ready for a science-based, personalised and compassionate approach to weight loss, Perth Weight Clinic can help.


✔ Medical weight-loss care

✔ Advanced metabolic testing

✔ TGA-approved medication options (if eligible)

✔ Support that continues long after the first appointment
