The Practice in General: What We Do

What began as a small in-hospital dietetic service in 2006 has grown into a thriving, multidisciplinary private practice. Over the past 20 years as we expanded our reach and expertise, now proudly serving a wide spectrum of patients across three leading Pretoria hospitals: Mediclinic Kloof, Cintocare Private Hospital in Menlyn Maine, and Life Eugene Marais Hospital in Les Marais.

Our practice offers both in-hospital and out-patient care, addressing a broad range of nutritional needs—from clinical support in ICU and surgical wards to personalized lifestyle coaching and chronic disease management. With a dedicated team of registered dieticians, we are committed to delivering evidence-based, compassionate care that meets each patient exactly where they are.

Online Consulting

Virtual consultations have revolutionized the way we connect with patients. What began during the first wave of Covid has since evolved into a vital part of our practice. With the rise of remote work and digital health, we've embraced this shift—making expert nutritional guidance accessible no matter where you are in the world.

Today, nearly one-third of our private practice is dedicated to virtual consultations, allowing us to support an ever-growing international community. Whether you're in a neighboring town or across the globe, we're just a click away. We offer flexible sessions through trusted platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and WhatsApp video calls.

Now you can consult your dietician from the comfort of your home or workplace—saving time, reducing travel, and minimizing your environmental impact. Personalized, professional diet support has never been more convenient.

What to Expect During a Dietetic Consultation

Every consultation begins with your story. The first session is a space for you to share why you're seeking help and what goals you hope to achieve—whether related to a medical diagnosis, ongoing symptoms, or overall well-being.

From there, the dietician gathers essential information to understand your unique situation, including:

  • Current medications and supplements
  • Typical dietary intake and eating habits
  • Anthropometric data (weight, height, body measurements)
  • Available blood test results

Many patients arrive with more than one dietary concern. Together, we determine which issues to address first—often a matter of building strong foundations before tackling more complex goals. We prioritize your needs carefully to ensure sustainable progress.

Your personalized dietary plan is then developed in collaboration with you. We take time to explain the "how" and "why" behind every recommendation, empowering you to take ownership of your health journey.

There's no cookie-cutter approach here—each plan is tailored to your unique needs, lifestyle, and health profile. Follow-up consultations every two to three weeks allow us to monitor progress and make timely adjustments. As your body changes, your diet should too.
