Compassionate Care on Your Medical Weight Loss Journey


At Aurora Bariatrics, we believe that weight loss is not just about shedding kilos —it's about embracing a healthier, happier life. We understand that your journey is unique, and we are here to support you every step of the way with compassionate care and personalised treatment.


Step 1: Initial Assessment


Your weight loss journey begins with understanding your past. We take the time to listen as you share your weight loss history, previous diets, and any medical conditions you may have. By getting to know you, we can uncover the metabolic and hormonal factors that might be affecting your progress. Our goal is to understand your body and mind deeply, so we can create a plan that truly works for you.


Step 2: Personalised Planning


With a clearer picture of your health, we move forward to the planning phase. We conduct thorough blood tests to assess your metabolic health, hormone levels, and vitamin status. This information helps us to tailor your treatment specifically to your needs.

Your options for medical weight loss include

  • Injectables - weekly (preferred) or daily
  • Oral - especially if you have a history of smoking or other addictive behaviours
  • Combination therapy - combining medication with your weight loss surgery, to achieve the best results possible

Together, we’ll choose the right medication and assemble your ideal support team, ensuring that you’re not alone in this journey. Your team, including your GP and our health care team, will be with you every step of the way, offering guidance and encouragement.


Step 3: Kickstart your weight loss!


Starting your treatment is a significant milestone, and we’re here to ensure it’s as smooth and effective as possible. With the right medication in hand and a dedicated support team by your side, you’ll be empowered to take control of your health.


Starting a new medication, especially an injectable, can be daunting - so we will show you how to do it. We also have a number of friendly pharmacists in Perth that can help you get started.


Our focus during this phase is on optimizing your protein intake, promoting fat loss, and preserving muscle mass. We’re committed to helping you achieve tangible results while maintaining your overall well-being.


Step 4: Goal Setting & Maintenance


Success in weight loss is not just about reaching a number on the scale—it's about setting goals that are meaningful and achievable. We get you started then check in with you every few weeks.


We’ll work with you to set specific targets that align with your lifestyle and aspirations. But we don’t stop there; we also provide you with the tools and strategies to overcome challenges and maintain your progress for life. Our aim is to see you thrive, living at a healthy weight with confidence and joy.
