About
The Eatwise Clinic is an ever-expanding team of 4 dietitians. We have been working in the St George and Sutherland Shire areas for over 20 years. We believe in evidence-based advice delivered with practical strategies.
We believe in encouraging what you should eat, rather than focusing on what not to eat! We believe in overall healthy, sustainable, filling meal plans – full of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins and high-quality carbohydrates. We are not about 'diets'.
We are about nutrition counselling and education to support you having the best opportunity to achieve your desired outcome. We support everyone across the entire life span, from pre-birth through to end-of-life support, and see all medical speciality areas.
Approach: Evidence-based and practical. Focuses on understanding the 'why' behind dietary changes. Positive framing — encouraging what to eat rather than restricting. Holistic, counselling-based, and collaborative with the broader healthcare team.
Weight Loss Approach
Evidence-based, practical, sustainable approach focused on overall healthy meal plans full of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins and high-quality carbohydrates. Philosophy emphasises encouraging what to eat rather than what not to eat, and understanding why changes are needed, not just what to change. Not focused on 'diets' but on nutrition counselling and education.

Client Reviews
“Today I saw my GP, who told me I am the healthiest I've ever been! I am still walking 5 days a week, using my pedometer and following the low GI plan we discussed. I really believe I can continue this forever. I am never going to be 'perfect', but I can be 'splendid' most of the time. I would like to thank you for your guidance in bringing me (and my family) into a healthy lifestyle.”

“I was fortunate to have been recommended by a friend and colleague to see Julia, and I'm so glad I did. Visiting Julia, even for the first time, was like visiting a friend. Julia is welcoming, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. The slight adjustments to my diet were easy to understand and follow. I learned a whole lot about nutrition that will stay with me for life.”
— Dave
“Every now and then, you meet someone, and you realise you were meant to meet. You have given me hope when I didn't think there was anything to hope for. You've given me strength when I've felt weak. You've helped me find beauty when all I saw was ugly. You've given me back to my family when they thought I'd slipped away. But most of all, you've helped me find me again, when I thought I was lost for good.”
