If you are looking for more comprehensive dietitian support to help you achieve your health and weight goals, option 2 is highly recommended.
We perform a thorough nutrition assessment based on your medical history, recent blood results, weight history, diet history and eating habits. We also assess other areas including your hormonal health (for thyroid function, PMS, insulin resistance etc) and gut health (for possible food sensitivities, intolerance, or allergies).
For those who need support with weight management, we also address possible psychological barriers, emotional struggles and disordered eating behaviours as well as stress and lifestyle factors before we put together a personalised nutrition care plan that specifically tailored to your needs and preferences to achieve your optimal weight and health goals.
Extended appointments are highly recommended especially for those require ongoing support for weight management, diabetes management or those have gut issues and other complex health conditions that require longer nutrition assessment and management.

. Discuss your eligibility for this referral with your doctor. You do not need a referral from your GP to see a dietitian if you are a private patient.
DVA
Back To Basics Dietetics (BBDiet) is a provider for the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA). If you have a Gold Card, all your dietitian consultations including home visits will be fully bulk-billed.
If you are DVA eligible, please see your GP for a referral before visiting the dietitian.
Cancellation policy:
Please provide 24 hours notice if you unable to make a scheduled appointment.
Failure to attend an appointment is unfair to other patients and takes up the practitioner’s time unnecessarily. Unfortunately, if you do not attend an appointment and have not provided 24 hours notice, you will be charged the full cost of the appointment.
We do appreciate, however, that short notice is unavoidable in some circumstances. Discretion will be exercised in such cases.
