Services

Your initial consultation takes up to one hour. To build a full picture, you may be asked about your relevant medical and surgical history, family history, body weight and weight history where relevant, medication, any recent blood results, your current diet and supplements, and your physical activity. Based on this information — and any relevant clinical condition — a personalised dietary treatment or management plan is developed, and appropriate targets may be agreed with you. It’s a conversation, not an examination: the aim is to understand you and build a plan that fits your life.

Margaret will make a recommendation at your initial consultation. For some clients, a single appointment is all that’s needed. Others benefit from a schedule of follow-up reviews — for example fortnightly or monthly — depending on individual circumstances and goals.

Some private health-insurance policies may provide full or partial cover for consultations with a CORU-registered Dietitian. Cover varies by policy, so please confirm eligibility directly with your insurer before attending. You may also be able to claim tax relief on qualifying health expenses through Revenue’s myAccount or ROS services — eligibility depends on your circumstances, so please check current Revenue guidance.
