TRACK RECORD
Entrepreneur, Lynda Mac Namee, has recently opened a brand new business in Omagh called Adipose Clinic.
She has a background in marketing and was a freelance consultant for businesses including Nokia and British Sugar.
She also worked for Library House, co-founded by former ‘Dragon’ from Dragon’s Den, Doug Richard.
The Adipose Clinic idea developed from an advert her husband Gerard brought home from his travels.
The clinic offers affordable, non-surgical, laser liposuction treatments for men and women using state-of-the-art technology from Chromogenex, the UK’s leading developer and manufacturer of advanced light and laser technology systems for use in medical and cosmetic procedures.
It aims to help clients lose inches and achieve instant results. Lynda, originally from Cambridge, lives in Omagh with her husband Gerard and three daughters.
6am
The alarm goes off and I am up straight away, getting things ready for my three daughters Niamh (17), Orlagh (14), Fionn (11). As you can imagine, it’s very busy having three girls — especially when you have a husband who travels a lot with work!
7am
While Niamh leaves for a camping trip, I am already starting to get things ready for the other two girls.
8.30am
The girls leave for school and I have a bit of time to get myself ready to prepare for the day ahead.
9am
I don’t live too far away from the clinic, but as soon as I arrive it’s straight into the first task of the morning, which includes a review of the clients booked today with one of our practitioners, Lisa.
We review each client file, discuss the results that have been achieved so far and look at ways that we can continue to support them so that they achieve the best results.
10.30am
Then it’s on to checking e-mails, catching up on articles online about health, well-being and anything else to do with our industry.
I deal with new enquiries, which can range from queries about treatments, the clinic and making appointments for new clients to have consultations or trial treatments.
12pm
Time to catch up with our PR consultant and a quick catch-up with the team at Chromogenex in Wales.
Our accreditation certificate has arrived from the Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority — which certifies us as an Independent Hospital — time to get this on the wall!
12.30pm
My girls have so much on so over lunch.
Today I am taking Fionn to orthodontist!
I leave the clinic in the capable hands of our highly-qualified and trained consultants.
1.30pm
Back at the clinic to meet clients.
If it’s a new client, they will have a consultation, including a clinic tour and discussion of their needs and general health.
If it’s an existing client, we discuss their ongoing treatments and the results they have achieved.
The treatments are so easy to use they can be applied during a lunch break, achieving instant results.
To get maximum results we recommend a course of eight treatments over four weeks.
4pm
Talk to Gerard on Skype to catch up on family, life, the business and what we’ll do when he comes home for 10 days.
4:30pm
Time to take Fionn and her double bass to orchestra.
Then back to the clinic to check in with consultants and make a check list for the next day.
5pm
Collect Orlagh from athletics training.
6pm
Cook dinner, talk to the girls about their day, what they have achieved and then set them up for homework.
7pm
Attend focus group meeting with users of a product that we are considering carrying at the clinic.
8pm
I enjoy this part of the day as this is my time at the book club.
This month’s book is In My Shoes by Tamara Mellon — the entrepreneur behind the Jimmy Choo shoe brand.
10pm
Get home to find the kitchen in a mess — time to clean up the kitchen, wash up and put everything away.
11.30pm
Finally it’s time for bed — a few pages of In My Shoes before my head hits the pillow — that’s me out!
