Consultation and Fees
ChildD dietitians allow 60 – 75 minutes for an initial consultation and 30 – 45 minutes for review appointments. This allows time for a thorough nutritional assessment, discussion, and negotiation of an individualised plan.
What to bring to your appointment?
A doctor’s referral is not essential, but any medical history or tests can assist with nutritional assessment.
If you would like to claim from Medicare, you will need a special referral or Chronic Disease Management Plan or Team Care Arrangements from your GP.

- Initial consultation 75 minutes: $241
