Why Aster?

The Aster Plan was conceptualised by an awards nominated small pharmacy and clinic team at Pharmacy Clinic Edinburgh. The goals are simple: weight management that is accessible, friendly and doesn’t follow the ‘one-size-fits-all’ plans that the big providers push.

With Aster you can expect:

✅ Comprehensive video consultations with a prescriber every 3 months

✅ Monthly check-in questionnaires before each prescription is issued

✅ Mini check-in consultations on demand (for free!)

✅ A small team for dedicated support

✅ Monthly payments: no need to sign up for a subscription - each prescription is charged individually and only with your consent. If you don’t like Aster, there’s no commitment to stay!
