Expert advice on optimising your nutrition for health
At Hendon Hospital in Hendon, London, we are privileged to have an exceptionally experienced dietitian who provides support and advice for a wide range of conditions and symptoms.
Whether you have a pre-existing condition that requires regular monitoring and review for nutritional guidance, or you have newly diagnosed condition that needs tailored dietary advice, our dietitian would be delighted to help you. Why not book your private consultation today, while it’s fresh in your mind?
There are a number of reasons you may be referred to our dietitian, including:
After a comprehensive assessment (see the ‘What to expect in your private appointment’ section below), you may be given tailored nutritional advice or advised to go on a certain diet. These could include:
Specialist nutritional supplements are also available when needed, such as:
Your dietitian has extremely close links with many medical specialists, including gastroenterologists, gynaecologists, cardiologists, endocrinologists, and care of the elderly consultants, and is regularly referred patients from them for her expert assistance.
Quick access to this wider team of specialists enables excellent communication of treatment plans, medical requirements and arrangement of any investigations or tests needed.
Your dietitian will talk with you and ask you about your medical history and/or any symptoms you are having. They will want to know things like:
Blood tests can often be helpful, as can a hydrogen breath test, which is used to help investigate some intestinal disorders.
Your dietitian will take a holistic approach, meaning they will look at everything together rather than focusing on just one small thing. Nutrition and diet issues can affect physical, emotional, and mental health, and all these need to be considered to ensure you receive the very best help.
One of the major benefits of visiting the dietitian at Hendon Hospital is her experience. Formerly a medical physician in the former Soviet Union, she retrained as a dietitian and has a BSc Hons in Nutrition and Dietetics.
The depth and breadth of her experience gives her exceptional knowledge of the best approach to take for a wide variety of symptoms, conditions, and diseases. While a newly qualified dietitian may need to do more extensive research or discuss your case with senior colleagues after your appointment, the dietitian working here will be able to give you expert advice within a much quicker timeframe.
She will discuss the results of any findings and the diagnosis with you, then talk you through the recommended treatment plan. Treatment is always tailored to your specific needs, and may involve nutrition advice, supplements and minerals, or a specific dietary regime to follow.
If you have any questions or concerns, they will be very happy to discuss these with you. Again, the benefit of a longer appointment (1-hour) means that there is plenty of time to talk things through so that you have a thorough understanding of any advice and guidance you’ve been given.
Often you will have a follow-up appointment again around 6-8 weeks after this first one. This allows the dietitian to monitor the effectiveness of your treatment plan, and to make any adjustments to it if needed.
When you choose to visit Hendon Hospital in London, you will benefit from:
