Overview
Nutrition consultation connects you with a qualified dietitian who assesses your medical history, current diet, test results and circumstances, and builds a plan around them. For people managing diabetes, cholesterol, hypertension or kidney conditions, that clinical grounding is what distinguishes it from generic dietary advice.
The value is in the individualisation. Advice that ignores your medication, your existing conditions and what you actually eat is advice you will not follow, and a plan built around your household and your routine is one you might.
Nutrition supports medical treatment; it does not replace it. Anyone offering dietary intervention as a substitute for prescribed treatment for a diagnosed condition is offering something a qualified dietitian would not.
Who should consider it
People managing diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension or kidney conditions. Anyone seeking sustainable weight change rather than a short-term diet. People with digestive complaints or food intolerances. Anyone whose test results have prompted dietary advice from a doctor.

How it works with us
- 1 We establish what you actually need A quick consultation, ongoing nutritional support, or a second opinion on a serious diagnosis are different services.
- 2 Matched to an appropriately qualified professional Specialisation matters. A second opinion on an oncology diagnosis needs an oncologist, not a general physician.
- 3 Records gathered before the consultation Reports, scans and prescriptions assembled in advance. A consultation without the records is a conversation, not an assessment.
- 4 Consultation held and documented Video, audio or written depending on the service, with a written summary you keep.
- 5 Follow-up arranged where it is needed Further consultation, a referral, or coordination with your treating doctor.
Important considerations
The things a brochure tends to leave out. Read these before you decide.
- Bring your recent test results and medication list. A plan built without them is generic advice with a consultation fee attached.
- A plan you will not follow is worth nothing. Be honest about what you actually eat and what your household will accept, or the plan will be built for someone else.
- Follow-up is where the value is. A single consultation produces a document; a series produces a change.
- Nutrition supports medical treatment rather than replacing it. Anyone suggesting otherwise for a diagnosed condition should be treated with caution.
- Check the dietitian's qualification. Nutrition advice is offered by many people and formal clinical qualification is what distinguishes it.
Documents required
- Identity proof for registration
- Previous medical records and test reports
- Imaging studies, where relevant
- Current prescriptions and medication list
- Discharge summaries from any recent hospitalisation
- Biopsy or pathology reports, for a second opinion
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from a diet plan online?
A qualified dietitian assesses your medical history, medication and test results and builds around them. Generic plans ignore all three, which matters a great deal if you are managing diabetes, kidney function or cholesterol — where the wrong dietary advice can be actively harmful.
Can nutrition replace my medication?
No. Nutrition supports medical treatment; it does not replace it. Anyone offering dietary intervention as a substitute for prescribed treatment for a diagnosed condition is offering something a qualified dietitian would not, and that should be treated with caution.
What makes a plan actually work?
That you will follow it. A plan built around what you genuinely eat, what your household will accept and what your routine allows is one you might sustain. A theoretically optimal plan you abandon in three weeks achieves nothing.
How many consultations do I need?
More than one. A single consultation produces a document; a series produces a change, because plans need adjusting as circumstances and results shift. Follow-up against your actual markers is where the value is.
How do I check the dietitian is qualified?
Ask about their formal qualification and registration. Nutrition advice is offered widely and clinical qualification is what distinguishes a dietitian from someone with an opinion about food — particularly where a medical condition is involved.
Want a shortlist instead of a catalogue?
Tell us the situation and an advisor comes back with two or three options that actually fit — and names what each one gives up.
