Our story
Our Pledge to You
At Tonic, our patients come first, no matter what.
We’ll never suggest weight loss surgery unless it’s 100% the right decision for you, and we’ll be with you throughout the process.
This is the Tonic vision:
Teamwork
We work together as a close-knit team, from our consultants to our surgeons, our dieticians to our nurses, successful delivery of weight loss surgery relies on our team coming together, which is something we’re incredibly proud of.
Open
We are honest and truthful in all we do. We’ll only ever suggest a procedure or treatment if it’s right for the patient, and we’re always here as and when you need us.
Never
We never stop learning or seeking opportunities to improve. We’re constantly working on improving our service and the lives of the patients in our care.
Integrity
We do the right thing, each and every time. We don’t compromise on our beliefs, and we always do what’s best for you.
Compassion

Life changing stories
Ally
10 st (64 kg)*
Weight Loss
“I have struggled with my weight all of my adult life, I have PCOS and every diet I have tried just wasn’t successful.
I have lost over 10 stone and I feel absolutely incredible. I would never have dreamt to have the life that I currently have now.”
Paul
10 st (64 kg)*
Weight Loss
“Life before surgery was fake, I had a happy face but was not really happy. I wouldn’t go on lads holidays with my friends or take my kids swimming.
I have lost over 10 stone and it’s been life changing. I have got my life back. I can now take my kids swimming, go on holiday, do those things that I should have done 10,15,20 years ago.”
Danni
5 1/2st (35kg)
Weight Loss
“Before I had surgery, I’d always yo-yoed with my weight. I was ashamed because of the size I’d gotten to. I was unable to buy the clothes I wanted to wear. I didn’t feel like the person that I wanted to be nor did my reflection match the person I felt inside.
The surgery with Tonic has absolutely changed my life. I’ve lost 5 and a half stone, and I am more confident and outgoing.”
Chanelle
9st (57kg)
Weight Loss
“Before weight loss surgery, I couldn’t cope with doing anything strenuous and I couldn’t spend time with my children in the way I wanted to. My eating was out of control, and I had been yo-yoing.
A year out from surgery, I’m a completely different person. Last year, my body fat percentage was in the morbidly obese category. Now, I’m in the healthy weight category.”
Claire
8 1/2st
Weight Loss
“I lost 8.5 stone. I feel like one of the gym girls, I have done a 10k this year and I am signed up to Brighton half marathon next year! I chose Tonic because I saw so many success stories online and because of the aftercare package. You have the dietician, the PT, the psychotherapist and the constant support group from others who have had surgery and the team in the office”
