Medical Weight Loss — Brisbane
Weight Loss That's Medically Supervised, Not Guesswork
You've tried the diets. The programs. The apps. Maybe you've lost weight before, only to watch the numbers climb back up. It's frustrating, disheartening, and it can start to feel like your body is working against you.
At Strylo Wellness, we offer private, medically supervised weight loss consultations for patients seeking a regulated, evidence-based approach. This is clinical care, not a commercial diet program.

Your Weight Is Not a Moral Failing. It's a Medical Condition That Deserves Proper Care.
If you've struggled with your weight, you've probably been made to feel — by others or by yourself — that you just need more willpower. That if you could just stick to the plan, the problem would be solved.
That's not what the evidence shows. Weight regulation is complex. It involves hormones, metabolism, genetics, psychology, and environment. For many people, diet and exercise alone are not enough — not because they're not trying hard enough, but because their biology is actively working against them.
This is where medical supervision matters.
At Strylo Wellness, we treat weight loss as a clinical issue, not a character test. We offer regulated, TGA-approved prescription treatment pathways as part of a comprehensive approach that addresses your whole health picture — not just the number on the scale.
This is not a commercial weight loss program. It's medical care, delivered by an AHPRA-registered doctor, in a private clinical setting.
Meet Your Practitioner
Dr Shae Strydom-Louda
Dr Shae Strydom-Louda is an AHPRA-registered doctor who believes in treating the whole person.
When it comes to weight, Dr Shae knows many patients carry years of frustration, shame, and failed attempts into the consultation room. Every conversation is approached with respect, not judgement. Weight is treated as a health issue to be managed — not a personal failing to be criticised.
The approach combines evidence-based prescription treatment (where clinically appropriate) with a broader focus on metabolic health, lifestyle factors, and sustainable change. Quick fixes are not offered. What is offered is thorough assessment, honest advice, and ongoing medical supervision.
Every treatment plan is individualised. Every patient is treated with dignity.
What to Expect From Your Consultation
Comprehensive Health Review
The consultation starts with a thorough discussion of your weight history, medical history, current medications, and any previous weight loss attempts. You'll explore what's worked, what hasn't, and what barriers you've faced. This is a judgement-free zone.
Clinical Assessment
Dr Shae assesses your metabolic health, reviews relevant blood work, and examines any underlying conditions that may be contributing to weight gain or making weight loss difficult. The full picture is considered — physical health, mental health, lifestyle, and social factors.
Treatment Options Discussion
Dr Shae discusses evidence-based approaches that may be appropriate for you. This includes the potential role of TGA-regulated prescription medications as part of a broader weight management plan, if clinically indicated. Dr Shae explains exactly how they work, what to expect, potential side effects, and the importance of medical supervision throughout.
Ongoing Support & Monitoring
Medical weight loss is not a one-off prescription and a wave goodbye. Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your progress, adjust treatment as needed, and provide ongoing support. You are not doing this alone.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. You can book directly.
The consultation may attract a Medicare rebate depending on eligibility. The prescription medication itself is generally not PBS-subsidised. All costs are discussed transparently during your appointment.
GLP-1 receptor agonists are a class of TGA-regulated prescription medications that can support weight loss by regulating appetite and slowing gastric emptying. They are not suitable for everyone. During your consultation, Dr Shae will explain whether they may be appropriate for your specific situation.
Treatment duration varies by individual. Weight loss is most successful and sustainable when it's gradual and medically supervised. Regular reviews are typically scheduled over several months, with ongoing monitoring.
Weight regain is a risk when any weight loss intervention stops — which is why the focus is on sustainable lifestyle changes alongside any prescription treatment, and why ongoing medical support is important. This is discussed openly during your consultation.
