Not sure your concern fits? Raise it on the free call and Kat will tell you whether she can help.
What happens at the first appointment
The initial consultation runs for 75 minutes, in Milton or by telehealth. Kat looks at your health history, recent test results if you have them, medicines and supplements, what you usually eat, and what a normal week looks like for you. Together you agree on what to focus on first.
Your written plan and resources are sent within 2 business days.
How this fits with your medical care
Kat provides nutrition assessment and advice. Your GP or specialist looks after diagnosis and medicines. With your permission, Kat can write to your GP so everyone is working from the same plan.
Some things need a doctor first. If you have lost weight without trying, your appetite has been poor for some time, or you have trouble swallowing, please see your GP. Kat will also suggest this if it comes up on your call.

Common questions
Do I need a referral?
No. You can book with Kat directly. A GP referral is only needed if you want to claim a Medicare rebate.
Can I claim Medicare or private health?
Medicare rebates may be available on paid consultations for eligible clients with a valid referral under a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP). Many private health extras policies also cover dietitian visits, depending on your fund and level of cover. Ask Kat about fees and any gap before booking.
Can I book on behalf of my mother or partner?
Yes. Family members are welcome to book the free call and to join the appointment if the person coming to see Kat would like that.
Is this a weight loss program?
No. Kat focuses on eating in a way that supports your strength, health and energy, and that you enjoy and can keep up.
I have lost weight without trying, or my appetite has been poor for a while. Can Kat help?
Please see your GP first so the cause can be checked. Kat can then work alongside your GP on the food side.
What happens on the free 15-minute call?
Kat calls you at the time you book. She listens to what is going on, explains whether she is the right fit and what the next step could be, and talks you through fees before you commit to anything. Your individual assessment and recommendations happen at the initial consultation.
I find booking online difficult. Is there another way?
Yes. Call 1300 640 104 or send a message through the contact page and Kat will arrange a time with you.
