Key Questions about Virtual Dietician

Do I need a referral from my GP?

No. There is no need to visit your GP for a referral.

How long is each session?

The appointment lasts 30 minutes.

What happens during my consultation?

During your initial consultation your Dietician will:


• Discuss your goals and health changes you wish to achieve


• Review your medical history and previous dietary changes made


• Complete a detailed analysis of your diet and lifestyle


• Provide a dietetic assessment from the information gathered and outline suitable dietary and lifestyle changes that need to be made to achieve your health goals


• Outline the timeline for when to expect these goals to be achieved


• Provide a starter meal plan and recipe book, specific to your caloric and nutrition requirement

Will I need to see my Dietician more than once?

This is something for you and Dietician to discuss. And of course, everyone’s situation is different. You may get all you need form one session, however if you want to make long term changes to your health, some clients find it more useful to arrange review appointments for accountability and to review their progress. Your Dietician can work with you in the first session and discuss what is the best option for you.
