Svårt att gå ner i vikt? Därför är Yazen bättre än ett besök hos vårdcentralen

When it comes to losing weight, many people have tried turning to their GP for help. But while GPs play a crucial role in overall health, they often don’t have the tools, time, or training to offer effective long-term obesity care. That’s where Yazen comes in – one of Europe’s largest digital obesity clinics, built specifically to support sustainable weight loss through medical treatment, behavioural change, and expert guidance.

Below is a table comparing what you can typically expect from a GP versus what you receive with Yazen when seeking help with weight loss:

A Focus on Obesity — Not Just General Care

GPs are trained to treat a wide range of health issues, but obesity is a complex, chronic disease that requires dedicated care. Yazen is built from the ground up to focus on weight loss and obesity treatment — using the latest science, tools, and specialist support.

Access to the Right Treatment

GPs may be cautious or restricted in prescribing modern weight-loss medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists [remove red part for markets where we cannot mention specific medications]. At Yazen, these medications are integrated into care, with eligibility determined through thorough health screening including recurring lab tests and consultations. Every patient receives a personalised plan, including medication and ongoing medical reviews.

A Whole Team Working With You

Instead of relying on one overwhelmed doctor, Yazen patients have access to a full multidisciplinary team — including doctors, psychologists, physiotherapists, dietitians, and a dedicated YazenCoach. It’s coordinated care, all in one place.

Mental Health Is Part of the Plan

Emotional eating, stress, and mental health challenges can all affect weight. While GPs may acknowledge this, referrals to mental health support are often slow and hard to access. Yazen builds mental wellbeing into the treatment, with psychologists available directly through the app – no waiting lists, no extra appointments.

Science, Not Guesswork

Weight is not just about the number on the scale. At Yazen, body composition is monitored to ensure optimal fat loss (not muscle loss), and to track improvements in visceral fat – the dangerous fat around internal organs. GPs typically do not have the tools, training or time to measure anything beyond BMI, missing crucial insights.

Always There, Wherever You Are

With Yazen, your care team is available through your phone – at home, at work, on the move. There is no need to travel, wait for appointments, or chase referrals. Instead, you check in regularly through the app, get reminders, track progress, and talk to your team when you need support.

Designed for Long-Term Success

Yazen isn’t a quick fix. It’s a programme built around lasting weight loss – from the first consultation to the maintenance phase. Patients are followed for at least 12 months and supported throughout. GPs, due to limited time and resources, often struggle to offer the same continuity or depth of care – and in most cases are not available via a digital platform. Instead, booking appointments and travelling to a physical location is required. With Yazen, you have access to your care team 24/7 – even if you’re on holiday. Wherever you are, your support is just a tap away.

The Bottom Line

GPs are invaluable for many aspects of healthcare. But for weight loss, they are often limited in what they can offer. Yazen fills that gap – combining medical treatment, behaviour change, team support, and digital access into one powerful model.
