Meet Muneeb
Hi, I'm Muneeb.
I'm 32, a Pharmacist Prescriber and the founder of renewe.
I also work as an NHS pharmacist in a busy community pharmacy, so helping people with their health is something I do every day.
Outside of pharmacy, fitness has become a big part of my life.
Growing up I was always the skinny one, and even into my adult life I struggled to put on weight. Around six years ago I properly got into the gym and started bodybuilding. I learnt more about training and nutrition, stayed consistent with it and eventually got to a weight and physique I was happy with.
For me though, the biggest difference wasn't just how I looked. I felt stronger, healthier and much more confident in myself.
That's probably where a lot of the thinking behind renewe comes from.
I'm a big believer in self-improvement and trying to become a better version of yourself, whether that's improving your health, getting stronger, building confidence or looking after your long-term health.
With renewe, I don't want us to be a clinic that simply prescribes medication and that's the end of it. I want us to actually help people make positive changes to their health and support them along the way.
That's also why we're putting such a big focus on strength and muscle preservation within our weight management service. Losing weight is obviously important for many of our patients, but I don't think the scales should be the only thing we focus on.
I want our patients to lose weight in a sensible way, look after their nutrition, stay active and become stronger and healthier along the way.
Longer term, I want renewe to continue developing around preventative health and helping people look after their health for the years ahead.
That's what I want renewe to stand for.
