Description

Brellah is expanding its innovative healthcare model with a dedicated Weight Loss Clinic. We are seeking a passionate clinician to lead this service, helping patients achieve healthier lives through evidence-based, personalised care.

Your role

This is an exciting chance for an experienced and passionate General Physician to join our team and lead the launch of the Brellah Weight Loss Clinic.

The clinic will include the introduction of the Allurion Gastric Balloon — a safe, non-invasive, outpatient weight loss procedure that requires no surgery, endoscopy, or anaesthesia.

You will work with an extraordinary team of highly qualified clinicians and allied health professionals, and will play a pivotal role in delivering personalised care and long‑term support to patients on their weight loss journey.

Responsibilities

- Assess patient eligibility for the weight loss program and devices
- Conduct initial assessments (medical history, metabolic risks, GLP-1 suitability)
- Perform placement of the gastric balloon and confirm position via X-ray guidance
- Explain risks and provide sensitive education about the Allurion programme
- Provide follow‑up consultations and closely monitor patient progress post‑placement
- Support patients in developing evidence‑based, individualised care plans for long‑term change
- Collaborate with the multidisciplinary team (Practice Nurse, Gastroenterologists,



Dietitians, Admin)
- Initiate and monitor GLP-1 therapy with structured follow‑ups and safety protocols
- Develop personalised care plans with dietitians, EPs, and psychologists
- Use data to drive continuous quality improvement
- Communicate effectively with referring GPs and specialists

We will provide full training in Allurion. Once trained, you will take ownership of the program—guiding patients from the least invasive options through to the Allurion balloon, a quick and non‑invasive procedure.

- Opportunity to launch and lead a flagship program within Brellah
- Full training provided in the Allurion Balloon program
- Multidisciplinary support from dietitians, exercise physiologists, and psychologists
- Be part of an integrated health model focused on outcomes, not just interventions
- Strong clinical background with interest in obesity and metabolic health
- Willingness to train in Allurion and expand scope of practice
- Collaborative mindset, comfortable working in a multidisciplinary team
- Passion for delivering patient‑centred, outcome‑focused care
