Our Services
Dietetics
There's a lot of nutrition noise out there. Our accredited practising dietitians cut through it with evidence-based, practical advice that actually fits your life. Whether you're managing a chronic condition like diabetes or heart disease, navigating a food allergy, supporting a child with feeding difficulties, or simply wanting to eat better — we build plans around real food, your preferences, and your goals.
Book a Dietitian AppointmentWhat is a Dietitian?
An Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) is a university-trained nutrition expert who uses evidence-based dietary advice to prevent and manage disease, improve health, and support overall wellbeing. Unlike general nutritionists, APDs are qualified to provide medical nutrition therapy for complex health conditions.
Good nutrition is fundamental to health — and what works for one person may not work for another. Our dietitians take a highly individualised approach, considering your health history, food preferences, cultural background, and lifestyle when developing your nutrition plan.
Dietitian services may be funded through Medicare (with a GP referral), private health insurance, workers compensation, or your NDIS plan.
What's the Difference Between a Dietitian and a Nutritionist?
In Australia, the title 'Accredited Practising Dietitian' (APD) is legally protected and requires a university degree and ongoing professional registration. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist. When you see one of our APDs, you know you're getting clinically trained, evidence-based nutrition support.
Why See a Dietitian?
- Manage a chronic health condition through nutrition
- Achieve sustainable weight management
- Improve energy levels and overall wellbeing
- Get evidence-based advice — not social media fads
- Receive NDIS-funded nutrition support

Our dietitians are experienced working with patients from diverse cultural backgrounds and understand the role that food plays in culture, family, and identity. We build plans around your food preferences and cultural practices, not around replacing them.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to see a dietitian?
No, you can self-refer. However, a GP referral under a Chronic Disease Management plan may allow you to access Medicare rebates.
How many sessions will I need?
This depends on your goals and health condition. Most people benefit from an initial assessment plus 3–6 follow-up sessions, but we'll discuss this at your first appointment.
Is dietetics covered by Medicare?
Yes. With a GP referral under a Chronic Disease Management or Team Care Arrangement plan, you may be eligible for Medicare-subsidised dietitian sessions.
Can a dietitian help with my child's feeding difficulties?
Yes. Our paediatric dietitian services support children with feeding difficulties, food refusal, growth concerns, and complex medical conditions.
