Dietetics
Dietitians form part of therapy services and advise patients on specific nutritional interventions to optimise nutritional status, overcome nutritional problems or manage their medical condition. We use the most up-to-date public health and scientific research on food, health and disease, translating this into practical guidance tailored to the specific needs of the individual.
