Our story
Doctor-led weight loss, built around you
Karespot is a doctor-led weight-loss service in India that pairs clinically proven GLP-1 medication with personalised health coaching. Every treatment is prescribed and supervised by registered doctors, and our guidance is written and medically reviewed by physicians — so you can lose weight safely, with real support rather than guesswork.
Karespot Story
Why we started Karespot
Weight isn't about willpower — it's biology. We started Karespot to make real, medical care for it something people can actually reach.
The problem
Biology, not willpower
For millions of people, weight is driven by appetite, metabolism and constant food noise — not a lack of effort.
The gap
Care behind a premium
Effective treatment existed, but it was hard to access, poorly explained, and priced as a luxury few could reach.
Our mission
Great care, for everyone
We built Karespot so good care isn't a premium privilege — it's accessible to everyone choosing to reclaim their life.
The Kare advantage
The Kare advantage is a holistic lens on weight loss. We believe medicine is a tool — a powerful one — but you are the true protagonist of your journey. Our role is to empower you and support you at every step, so you never feel alone at any stage.
Experts from Cambridge, Oxford and India came together to design a program that people genuinely love — combining world-class clinical thinking with care that's made for real life.

Who we prescribe to — and how we keep it safe
In line with international and India-specific obesity guidelines, weight-loss medication is prescribed only to people with:
- a BMI of 30 or above, or
- a BMI of 27.5 or above with at least one weight-related health condition. [3]
Weight-loss medication is only prescribed under the supervision of, and after a consultation with, an internal medicine doctor. Before anything is prescribed, a detailed medical history is taken to assess whether the medicine is safe and right for you.
Muscle-smart by design
A lot of the weight people lose on GLP-1 medicines can come from muscle, not just fat. [1] So our protocols are designed by a multidisciplinary team to help you get the most from your fat loss while protecting muscle:
Biologist
Oxford
Grounds our approach in the science of metabolism and muscle.
Pharmacologist
Medication safety
Guides safe, effective use of GLP-1 medicines.
Internal medicine
Physicians
Oversee your treatment and your overall health.
Orthopaedics
Strength & joints
Help protect muscle, strength and joints.
Built to help you keep it off
Karespot was conceived in the heart of Cambridge with one aim — to build something that genuinely touches lives and helps you keep the weight off.
Obesity is a chronic condition, and when treatment and support stop abruptly, much of the lost weight is often regained. [2] That's why Karespot is built for the long term: ongoing medical support paired with our muscle-smart, holistic approach, so your results are more likely to last.
