## Care designed around the whole person.

Medify brings medical judgement, aesthetic restraint and ongoing support into one calm, approachable practice.

There is no one-size-fits-all protocol. We start with a conversation, establish what is clinically appropriate and build a plan around your health, priorities and comfort.

## One practice. Five connected areas of care.

Choose the area that best reflects what you would like to discuss. Your consultation determines the appropriate next step.

### Peptide consultations

Doctor-led assessment for selected patients where peptide-based therapy may be clinically relevant. Prescription treatment is never automatic.

[Understand the process](https://themedify.com/peptides.html)

### Medical weight management

A structured medical programme focused on metabolic health, appropriate investigations, sustainable behaviour and monitored treatment where indicated.

### Facial aesthetics

Subtle, anatomy-led treatment planning that protects expression and proportion. The aim is refinement—not a standardised look.

### Professional skin health

Skin assessment and treatment with our somatology and dermal aesthetics team, coordinated with the medical plan when needed.

### Clinically assessed IV therapy

IV therapy delivered with qualified clinical oversight after suitability screening. Formulation and frequency depend on individual assessment.

## Good care starts before treatment.

Better-informed decisions come from choosing carefully, setting realistic expectations and reviewing progress—not from doing more.

### Consult

We discuss your history, concerns, goals, current treatment and what you would prefer to avoid.

### Personalise

Your plan is built around clinical appropriateness, informed consent and realistic priorities.

### Review

Follow-up allows the team to monitor response, refine the plan and address questions early.

## Dr Luhard Jansen van Vuuren

General Medical Practitioner · Aesthetic Medicine · Anti-Ageing Medicine

Dr Luhard leads Medify with a simple principle: patients deserve honest medical guidance, a clear plan and care that still feels human.

His special interests include facial aesthetics, medically supervised weight management and peptide medicine. He is also involved in clinician education, bringing a teaching mindset to every consultation—so patients understand not only what is recommended, but why.

Away from the practice, Dr Luhard is a husband and father of two. That grounded perspective shapes the calm, approachable culture he expects from the entire Medify team.

## Clear medical perspective, written for patients.

Monthly, doctor-reviewed articles on clinical assessment, weight management, peptide consultations, facial aesthetics, skin health and IV therapy.
