About
Welcome to our Dietetics Clinic at PhysioCentral in Miranda, the Sutherland Shire – where evidence-based nutrition meets real life. Our Accredited Practising Dietitian, Veronika Pudikova (APD), makes food advice simple, providing practical care that helps you make confident food choices, improve symptoms, and build healthy habits that last. Veronika helps people with gut issues, hormone changes and long-term metabolic conditions.
She focuses on practical, realistic food changes so you can feel better, improve your health markers and feel more confident with your eating long term. On Ozempic/Wegovy/Mounjaro? Veronika will fine-tune your plan to support results, ease side effects and maintain good nutrition.
If you've tried everything for weight loss, we'll skip strict rules and focus on doable routines – hunger management, meal structure, protein/fibre targets and small changes that actually stick.
Approach: Practical, realistic and evidence-based. Translates complex nutritional needs into clear, doable steps. Focuses on sustainable habit change rather than strict rules, with a non-judgmental approach to patients who have 'tried everything'.
