If you’ve ever wondered what to expect in a dietitian appointment, you’re not alone. Many people are unsure how personalised nutrition counselling works or what happens when you work with an online dietitian.
At Sage Dietitians, our appointments are designed to be supportive, practical, and tailored to real life. Here’s what working with our dietitians looks like, step by step.
Free Discovery Call With a Dietitian
Your journey begins with a free 15-minute discovery call, held online.
This initial call helps you decide if working with a dietitian is the right fit for you. During the call, we will:
Discuss your health and nutrition goals
Talk through your current challenges
Explain how we can support you
Help you choose the best next step
These free discovery calls are confidential, relaxed, and completely pressure-free.
Initial Dietitian Appointment
Your first appointment is a 60-minute online consultation focused on understanding you as a whole person.
We will cover:
Your nutrition and health goals
Medical history
Medications and supplements
Relevant blood test results
Activity levels
Usual eating patterns
Previous approaches you’ve tried
What your day-to-day life looks like
This allows us to provide evidence-based nutrition counselling that is realistic and achievable.
Your Personalised Nutrition Plan
After your appointment, you will receive a personalised nutrition plan emailed directly to you.
Your plan is created after the session so it is never rushed. It is tailored to:
Your goals
Your lifestyle and schedule
Your food preferences
What feels manageable and sustainable for you
This personalised approach ensures your nutrition plan fits into your real life.
Review Dietitian Appointments
Following your initial consultation, we recommend booking review dietitian appointments to continue your progress.
Review appointments are 30 minutes, are held online and help us:
Adjust your nutrition plan as your needs change
Work through challenges and setbacks
Provide accountability and ongoing support
Review frequency is flexible. Some clients book weekly, while others prefer fortnightly or monthly sessions.
Support Between Dietitian Appointments
When working with an online dietitian in Australia, support between sessions is just as important.
Between appointments, you can:
Email your dietitian with questions as they arise
Access optional weekly email check-ins for added structure and accountability
You are supported throughout your journey, not just during appointments.
Our Evidence-Based, Weight-Neutral Approach
At Sage Dietitians, our approach is:
Evidence-based
Weight-neutral and non-restrictive
Practical and supportive
Designed to fit real life
We focus on sustainable change, not perfection.
