Before your consultation
To help you get the most out of your appointment with ABC Nutrition, you will be sent out online nutrition assessment form and Service Agreement for you to complete before your first appointment. Our nutrition assessment form helps us to gain a better understanding of your medical history, lifestyle and eating patterns. We are not here to judge - there are no right or wrong answers. You will also receive a copy of our COVID screening questionnaire. Please ensure you complete this prior to each in=person consultation.
By filling out these forms ahead of time, we can spend more time focusing on YOU and what really matters during your first consultation, rather than collecting information!
FAQS
What will happen during your consultations?
What happens during an initial consultation?
We offer a client-centered approach and will put your needs first! Your initial consultation is where we learn more about you and what makes you tick. We will review your completed online nutrition assessment with you and talk with your to understand more about what your needs and expectations are. Once we have an understanding of what’s important to you, we will work together to develop a set of personalised goals and strategies, based on your nutrition and health needs.
We believe ‘slow and steady wins the race’ - with small and gradual changes being more sustainable in the long-term. Your dietitian will work with you to break big goals down into smaller, more achievable actions. During this session, your dietitian will provide you with plenty of helpful information to help you reach your goals and also provide you with education about the importance that nutrition plays in various health conditions.
Will I get a personalised meal plan?
We typically don’t develop meal plans as we find they can be too prescriptive and regimented. Instead we believe it is important to be flexible and have no boundaries when it comes to what you eat. However, since we know you can sometimes get stuck for inspiration, we will provide you with plenty of nutritious meal and snack ideas that you can use at home.
How often will I need a follow-up?
Our follow-up appointments are where we focus on and refine your goals and actions even further. They are also an opportunity to provide more in-depth education and to provide additional help and support.
The pace you work at with your dietitian is entirely up to you, and because of this we offer a range of packages and programme tailored to suit your needs.
