See a dietitian in Kiama

Food advice you can live with, from an Accredited Practising Dietitian. We start with what you already eat and change as little as possible to get where you want to go.

Appointments are on Fridays. No referral needed, and Medicare rebates are available with a GP care plan.

  • Coeliac disease and gluten management
  • Reflux and food intolerances

Health and performance

  • Type 2 diabetes and blood sugar management
  • Cholesterol, blood pressure and heart health
  • Weight management without a crash diet
  • Sports nutrition, fuelling and recovery
  • Eating well through cancer treatment
How it works

What an appointment involves

First visit The full picture Your history, your symptoms, your bloods if you have them, and an honest look at how you actually eat during a normal week.
You leave with A short list A handful of specific changes, in writing, that fit your budget, your cooking and your household. Not a meal plan you will abandon.
Review Adjust what did not work Some changes stick and some do not. Reviews are for swapping out the ones that did not, rather than telling you to try harder.

Working on strength or a chronic condition at the same time? Your dietitian and your exercise physiologist work from the same set of goals, in the same building.

Dietitian questions

What is the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist?

Accredited Practising Dietitian is a protected, credentialled title. Dietitians are university trained and qualified to provide medical nutrition therapy, which means their services can attract Medicare, DVA and private health rebates. "Nutritionist" is not protected in the same way. You will see an Accredited Practising Dietitian here.

Do I need a referral to see a dietitian?

No. You can book directly. A GP referral under a chronic disease management plan may give you a Medicare rebate for a set number of visits, so it is worth asking your GP if you have an ongoing condition.

Will I be put on a diet?

No. The job is to find changes that fit the way you actually eat, cook and live. Plans nobody can follow are not plans. Expect a small number of specific changes, reviewed and adjusted.

Can you help with gut symptoms like bloating and IBS?

Yes, that is a large part of the work — including structured approaches such as a low FODMAP elimination and reintroduction, which is genuinely hard to do properly without guidance.

Start with what you already eat.

Dietitian appointments are on Fridays and first visits are in person. If there are no new-client times online, call reception — they can put you on the list.
