Clinical Philosophy

"For many people, the missing step is not another prescription. It is a careful review of whether the current plan still fits — and what it takes to stay well without it."
— Dr Dan Reardon · NHS A&E Doctor · GMC 6098984

Core Services

Four clinical pathways. One clinician.

Each service is a distinct clinical offering. All four sit under Dr Dan Reardon and are delivered via CQC-registered Sutton Medical Consulting.

Flagship

GLP-1 Exit Strategy

Mounjaro · Wegovy · Ozempic

Clinician-led plan for tapering or stopping GLP-1 medication. Covers appetite return, muscle loss, weight regain risk, monitoring strategy, and a written exit plan. The most evidenced-backed exit protocol available privately in the UK.

Deprescribing

SSRIs · PPIs · Statins · Blood pressure medication · Polypharmacy

Clinical Data Review

Blood tests · Wearables · CGM · DNA · Private labs

Deprescribing Pathways

Choose your starting point.

Each medication class has a different rebound pattern and taper strategy. The plan is built for your pathway.

GLP-1 Exit Strategy

Wegovy · Ozempic · Mounjaro

Clinician-led plan to maintain results through appetite return, lean mass protection, and long-term maintenance.

View pathway →

SSRI / Antidepressant Review

Sertraline · Fluoxetine · Citalopram

Careful taper planning with stability scaffolding across sleep, stress load, and relapse prevention.

View pathway →

PPI Review

Reflux medications

Rebound reflux planning, dietary trigger identification, step-down strategies, and lifestyle levers.

View pathway →

Statin Review

Where appropriate

Risk stratification and shared decision-making to confirm whether ongoing therapy remains clinically indicated.

View pathway →

Blood Pressure Medication

Step-down with home monitoring

If readings are stable, we review whether medication is still needed and plan a safe, monitored step-down.

View pathway →

Levothyroxine Review

Do you really need it

Was the original indication clinically justified, is a question very few patients have ever been invited to ask.

View pathway →

Medication Load Review

Polypharmacy

On multiple medications? One coherent, clinician-led plan — mapping the full regimen, interactions, and priorities.

Clinical Process

Deprescribing is the easy part.

Staying stable afterwards is the work. Here is how it is done.

01
Assess
02
Stabilise
03
Plan
04
Taper / Adjust
05
Maintain

Review your history, goals, current medication list, and previous attempts. Map the likely rebound points and define what success looks like for you.

Before changing anything, build a stable baseline: nutrition structure, strength plan, sleep anchors, and symptom tracking. This reduces noise.

A personalised plan: what to continue, what to adjust, what may be reduced. Clear monitoring targets and check-in points. Written and yours to keep.

Step-down is gradual and responsive, with symptom tracking and decision rules. Coordinated with your GP or specialist where needed.

Locking in maintenance: habits, environment design, relapse prevention, and follow-up. Stability without white-knuckling.

01
Assess

Review your history, goals, current medication list, and previous attempts.

02
Stabilise

Build a stable baseline: nutrition, sleep, symptom tracking — before changing anything.

03
Plan

A personalised written plan with clear monitoring targets and check-in points.

04
Taper / Adjust

Gradual, responsive step-down with symptom tracking and decision rules.

05
Maintain

Habits, environment design, relapse prevention, and follow-up locked in.

Medication changes are always individual and should never be done abruptly without clinical supervision.

Patient Fit

If any of these describe you, this clinic is built for you.

The patients who book are not looking for motivation. They want clinical specificity and a plan that holds.

GLP-1 continuation or exit

On Mounjaro, Wegovy, or Ozempic and planning to stop — or already stopped and watching weight return. A medically supervised plan for what comes next.

Rebound appetite and early regain

Hunger, cravings, or weight returning after stopping medication. Stabilise the baseline, implement a structured transition plan, and manage the highest-risk window clinically.

Polypharmacy & medication load

On multiple medications — some for decades — with no recent review. One coherent, clinician-led plan with interactions mapped and priorities clear.

Private health data with no interpretation

Using Medichecks, Thriva, Zoe, a CGM, or wearables and accumulating results without qualified clinical interpretation. The data is only useful when someone can tell you what it means.

High-performance and longevity focus

Into strength, longevity, and optimisation. Wants the clinical edge — a comprehensive metabolic audit with a goal-aligned written report. The premium offering for patients who want everything assessed properly.

Family-initiated medication review

Concerned about a relative's medication load — particularly an elderly parent on a long and unreviewed prescription list. The Independent Medication Review can be initiated by a family member with patient consent.

I continue to work in NHS A&E. That shapes everything I do in private practice. Frontline emergency medicine gives you a precise understanding of what happens when medication management goes wrong — and what it looks like when it goes right.

Deprescribing isn't the hard part. Staying stable afterwards is. That's what I build for — not ideology, not trends, not abrupt discontinuation. A clinician-led plan with monitoring, contingencies, and a maintenance system that holds.

Common Questions

Before you book.

The questions most people have before making contact.

Do you just get people off medication?
No. The review looks at indication, risk, and benefit. Sometimes the right answer is to continue, adjust, or deprescribe — case by case. The goal is the most clinically defensible decision for you, not a predetermined outcome.
How much does a consultation cost?
The GLP-1 Exit Strategy Review is £445 for a 60-minute consultation including advance review of your history and a written plan. The Metabolic and Deprescribing Review is £395. The Clinical Data Review is £295 for 45 minutes. The Independent Medication Review is £1,200 and includes two appointments and a structured written report. Follow-ups start from £125. See the full fees page →
Is this available outside Sutton Coldfield?
Yes. GLP-1 Exit Strategy Reviews and the GLP-1 Exit Programme are available by video consultation for patients across the UK. Other services are currently delivered in person at Sutton Coldfield.
How is this different from going back to my GP?
GPs manage a broad caseload under time pressure. This practice specialises specifically in deprescribing, medication review, and metabolic health — with the time and clinical focus to review your full medication history, interpret your data, and produce a written plan. It also operates independently of any commercial incentive to keep you on treatment.
Will you work with my GP or specialist?
Yes, where appropriate. A written summary goes back to your GP where clinical coordination is needed. Some plans work best in shared care.
Can I stop my medication suddenly?
No. Many medications require gradual tapering and monitoring. Never stop abruptly without clinical advice — this applies especially to SSRIs, GLP-1s, and blood pressure medication.
Is this only for GLP-1 patients?
No. GLP-1 exit is the flagship pathway, but the practice covers deprescribing across multiple medication classes — SSRIs, PPIs, statins, blood pressure medication — as well as metabolic health optimisation and clinical data review for people using private testing.
Do you prescribe medication?
Where clinically appropriate, prescriptions can be arranged via SignatureRx and delivered to your home address. The service is not a prescription shortcut — it is a clinical review that arrives at the most defensible next step.

You already know something needs to change. Build the plan that makes it stick.

Clinician-led clarity on medications, metabolic health, or both. Leave with a written plan.
