The Mova Medical Difference!
Why a small, clinician‑led service is quietly changing the conversation around injectable weight loss.
1. You’re cared for by a named expert, not an algorithm
When you book a consultation with Mova Medical you’ll meet Erika Crichton‑Baker - an Advanced Clinical Practitioner and registered pharmacist with more than 30 years of NHS and private‑sector experience in diabetes, cardiology, obesity and women’s health. Her GPhC registration number is published on the site, so you know exactly who is responsible for your care.
By contrast, most larger competitors follow enquiries through rotating clinical teams and online questionnaires. You might have “unlimited, free consultations with prescribing clinicians,” but those interactions typically happen through in‑app chat rather than a dedicated clinician who follows your case from start to finish. Erika and Mova Medical are only ever a call away.
2. Safety‑first prescribing - before, during and after treatment
Mova Medical insists on a four‑step pathway that starts with verified ID, BMI and waist measurements, followed by a 30‑minute video call, an individually titrated prescription (Wegovy or Mounjaro), and regular follow‑ups at intervals you and Erika agree together.
That extra layer of live clinical assessment matters. Industry‑wide data show a rise in emergency admissions linked to unsupervised use of GLP‑1 injections; Mova Medical’s video‑first policy and strict UK‑licence criteria are designed to keep you out of those statistics.
3. Transparent, lower‑entry pricing
Because Mova Medical is a lean, clinician‑owned practice, overheads stay low - and so do starting prices:
The price you see on the website is the price you pay. There are no “first‑month discount, then jump” surprises.
4. The flexibility of two gold‑standard medications
Some providers will funnel every customer down a single drug pathway; Mova Medical prescribes either Wegovy (semaglutide) or Mounjaro (tirzepatide), choosing the molecule that matches your metabolic needs, tolerance and budget and optimises the best result for you.
5. Delivery you can trust - discreet, trackable, UK‑regulated
Your pens arrive each month in plain packaging via a licensed UK pharmacy partner, and every batch can be traced back to MHRA‑approved wholesalers. That may sound obvious, but recent MHRA alerts about counterfeit pens show why transparent sourcing is essential.
6. Ongoing lifestyle support that fits real life
Alongside medication, Mova Medical offers:
A growing blog with evidence‑based nutrition and exercise guides
Free BMI and waist‑to‑height calculators
Optional later 15‑minute review video consultation calls are £25 so you pay for follow‑up only when you need it. Bundled in consultation costs might be useful if you need a nudge, but Mova Medical leave this up to you. If you need advice call Erika.
7. Small clinic, big accountability
Because Erika’s name is on every prescription, the reputation of Mova Medical is by patient outcomes and word of mouth, not venture‑capital growth targets. That personal stake is hard to match in large, investor‑driven platforms.
The bottom line
If you want weight‑loss injections delivered quickly with a glossy app and a big marketing budget, the competitors have you covered. If you’d rather have a single, highly qualified clinician steering your care, with clear and realistic pricing, and a prescribing process that puts safety ahead of speed, Mova Medical stands out.
Wave goodbye to fad diets - and to the impersonal “one‑size‑fits‑all” telehealth - by putting your journey in the hands of someone who knows your name, and your own story.
