Objective Metabolic syndrome is highly prevalent among people with schizophrenia. This study aims to assess the impact on metabolic and attendance outcomes of a co-located, dedicated, endocrinologist-led metabolic clinic in a stand-alone public community mental health service. Methods Demographic and metabolic data on the first 48 consecutive referrals over a 12-month period were retrospectively collected and analysed. Attendance rates at the co-located clinic were compared to the general hospital obesity and diabetes clinics. Results Clinic attendees had significant reductions in triglycerides and total cholesterol, but not mean weight, BMI, waist circumference, blood pressure or HbA1c. Attendance rates were significantly higher in the co-located clinic compared to the general hospital obesity and diabetes clinics for both initial consult (80.0% vs 51.2%, p < 0.001) and review appointment (64.3% vs 47.6%, p < 0.001). Conclusion The co-location of a specialist metabolic clinic within a mental health service resulted in enhanced engagement and improvement of metabolic health in people with schizophrenia.
