Bulk Billed Consultation
Bulk billed consultations are only available for Chronic Disease Management Plans, which can be obtained via your GP.
Please consider this meeting as more of a friendly discussion about where you’re at, where you want to be, and what you can do to get there. There are no judgements here!
Using the same type of format as a private referral, several things typically occur.
Information Gathering: I will start by gathering information about your medical history, current health condition, dietary habits, lifestyle, and goals, eating patterns, exercise routines, and any specific concerns or conditions you have.
Assessment: I will assess your nutritional needs and overall health based on the information you provided. I will look at relevant parameters such as activity levels, weight etc to evaluate your nutritional status. I also consider any medical conditions, allergies, or dietary restrictions you may have.
Goal Setting: Based on your health goals, I will work with you to establish realistic and achievable objectives. These goals can be related to weight management, disease prevention, sports performance, or specific dietary modifications.
Education and Counselling: I will provide you with nutrition education, explaining the principles of healthy eating, the importance of balanced nutrition, and how different nutrients affect your body. They may also address any misconceptions or concerns you have about food and provide practical strategies to improve your eating habits.
Behavior Change Strategies: I will help you develop strategies to make sustainable changes in your dietary and lifestyle behaviors. I will offer tips on meal planning, grocery shopping, cooking methods, and mindful eating techniques. I will also discuss strategies for overcoming challenges and maintaining motivation throughout the process.
Follow-up Plan: We will discuss the frequency and duration of follow-up appointments to monitor your progress, make adjustments to your plan if necessary, and provide ongoing support and guidance.
