FAQs

The initial consultation provides an opportunity for us to get to know you and best understand your current goals and challenges. We will discuss your medical history, medications, movement, eating habits and dietary intake. At the end of the consultation, we will work with you to fill in the gaps of your nutrition knowledge and provide a plan which includes some goals and recommendations to pursue ahead of the follow up consultation.
During follow up sessions, your dietitian will review your progress. This might look like discussing some of the positive outcomes since the prior consult, as well as discussing some challenges you may have experienced. Your dietitian will always practice in a non-judgemental, kind and supportive manner. We will work collaboratively to set realistic strategies to best achieve your goals.
Telehealth involves having a consultation online, via video call or telephone. Telehealth is a great option if you can’t access a clinic, or if you’re unwell and need to self-isolate. Telehealth consultations are both convenient and easy to access. We offer two Telehealth consultation options: phone and video (Microsoft Teams).
Great question! In Australia there is a difference between dietitians and nutritionists. A nutritionist may be a tertiary qualified nutrition professional that has the expertise to provide a range of evidence based nutrition services related to nutrition, public health nutrition, policy and research, and community health. It’s important to note that the term ‘nutritionist’ is not regulated. Therefore, this title may be used by dietitians, nutrition scientists and nutrition graduates – and also those with very limited qualifications in nutrition.
Alternatively, dietitians are also qualified to provide this range of evidence based nutrition services, but in addition, dietitians have the expertise to provide individual dietary counselling, medical nutrition therapy, group dietary therapy and food service management.
