Book an Appointment

Gut Nutrition has in-person or video consultations on Friday afternoons. Video consultations are also available on Tuesday evenings a few times per month.

An initial 50 minute appointment is $180. A follow up 30 minute appointment is $110. In some cases shorter telephone appointments (15 minutes) may be needed and these cost $45.

The number of appointments you will need will depend on the treatment required. For example, if your IBD is in remission and you would like to discuss diet and nutrition to help maintain remission then you may only need one appointment. If you would like to use nutritional therapy to treat active Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis you will probably need three appointments and a short telephone review.

Catherine has extensive experience working with people with many gut diseases and disorders (e.g. diverticular disease, irritable bowel syndrome, lactose intolerance, constipation) as well as other health conditions such as diabetes. You can discuss your needs with Catherine prior to making an appointment.

Jo has a wealth of experience working with people undergoing cancer treatment to help manage symptoms and side-effects from treatment and optimise nutrition intake. Jo is also up to date and can provide guidance on what to eat before and during pregnancy to provide lifelong benefits for your child and may be reduce the likelihood of developing IBD.

We tend to recommend meeting your nutritional needs from food. You may be recommended to take nutritional supplements if there is good evidence to support the use of a nutritional supplement (e.g. Ensure Plus, Fortisip, specific vitamins or minerals).

Most of the nutritional supplements that you might be recommended are available on prescription. Gut Nutrition dietitians can prescribe these for you.
