How it works
What will you gain from working with a Dietitian?
At Melbourne Weight Loss Solutions, our Dietitians have extensive experience supporting both surgical and non-surgical weight loss clients. They will provide personalised nutrition guidance tailored to your specific health and wellness goals. Through their expertise, you'll gain the knowledge and practical skills to nourish your body, improve your health, and achieve lasting well-being.
What to expect in your first appointment
This initial consultation is an opportunity for you and your Dietitian to build a strong foundation for your weight loss journey. Our Dietitians will take the time to understand the factors that influence your food choices, such as your home environment, work routine, food preferences, and cooking skills. They will also discuss your key health goals. This is a great time to ask any questions you may have!
You will leave your first consult with:
Improved food knowledge
Practical strategies to implement
Relevant diet guidelines and resources
A plan for follow up support

A rebate from private health insurance may be available for 'extras' policy holders. Simply call your insurer and ask whether you are covered for Dietetic appointments. They can tell you how much you will get back on each appointment.
Alternatively, you can ask your GP for a referral to your dietitian under an Enhanced Primary Care Plan or Eating Disorder Care Plan. This will entitle you to a rebate of $60.35 from Medicare. You will need to present this plan at your follow-up appointment in order to receive the rebate.
*Medicare rebates may be available for a total of 5 allied health visits per calendar year with an Enhanced Primary Care Plan (EPC) or up to 20 sessions per year with GP Eating Disorder Care Plan.
