About
Melbourne Dietetics Clinic is staffed by Accredited Practising Dietitians (APDs) — the only credentialled dietitians and nutritionists recognised by the Australian Government (through Medicare) and many private health insurers. Our advice is based on scientific evidence and you can be assured of the highest standard of dietetic care. We are based in Hawthorn East, South Yarra, and Mount Waverley and are well regarded in Melbourne for our comprehensive dietetic care.
Diabetes, heart conditions, gastrointestinal issues, and kidney and liver conditions often coexist, and our holistic approach provides realistic and effective strategies to support your good health. Working with your medical practitioners, our Accredited Practising Dietitian provides evidence-based dietary advice and recommendations to optimise your health. Our support helps you minimise the risk of disease progression or health complications associated with your condition.
Approach: Evidence-based, holistic, preventive health focus. Collaborative with medical practitioners. Described as providing realistic and practical strategies tailored to individual circumstances.
