Fertility Nutrition Intensive

You sure can! We offer consultations worldwide via Zoom. It’s as easy as selecting your time zone when you make a booking and then scheduling a time that we’re both available.

The virtual fertility nutrition intensive consultation with our expert fertility dietitians & nutritionists, at The Dietologist is an investment of $490 AUD this is inclusive of your customised nutrition & supplementation plan and your 2-hour one-on-one Zoom session plus BONUS downloadable guide. Please keep in mind these prices are for new to practice clients only.

The Fertility Nutrition Intensive is right for you (and your partner, if relevant) need a one-off consultation with a customised nutrition and supplementation plan based on your unique needs, bloodwork and history, as well as your goals, and are happy to work on implementing on your own without any further input from us. Perhaps the time commitment of 6 months of coaching with us isn’t right for you at the moment, although we highly recommend it for the best results! If you change your mind though, you’re welcome to upgrade to our coaching programs if you decide you do, in fact, need some more 1:1 support from us? Just ask your practitioner, and they’re happy to help!

Yes, we offer a split payment option for the Fertility Nutrition Intensive consultation. You can elect to pay 50% of the consult fee ($245) at the time of booking to secure your appointment. The remaining balance is charged to your preferred payment method on the morning of your consultation.

Our Fertility Nutrition Intensive consultation is designed to be a once-off session; however, we understand that you may get to the end of the session and want to continue working with us. We would LOVE to support you! You can discuss this with your dietitian, and we can arrange an upgrade to one of our one-on-one nutrition coaching programs and credit you with what you have paid to date. You can also arrange this via email at hello@thedietologist.com.au.

We want you to get the most out of working with us, so be prepared for your consultation to help things run smoothly and make the most of our time together! So, here are what we love for you to provide to us ahead of your initial consultation:

Your referral documents from your doctor (optional, if you have one or are claiming a Medicare rebate for your consultation) – this is not necessary to see us!

A copy of your blood work results from the last 6-12 months. Haven’t had any before then? Drop us an email, and we can help point you in the right direction!

A summary of your current supplements and medications (if any), including brand name, when you take them and how much of each you take.

Any relevant tests, reports or summaries (if any)

Completely optional: a 5-7 day food diary – please don’t feel obligated to do this. If you don’t get the chance or choose not to, we are trained to get the information we need about your diet without needing a food diary!

You need a few pieces to help get connected to your dietitian at The Dietologist:

• A laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone is preferred. A smartphone works too when you’re on the go!
• A reliable Wi-Fi or Internet Connection.
• A headset or earphones are preferable.
• You don’t need to have Zoom installed on your phone or laptop; however, it can make for a smoother experience for you!
• That’s it! Click the link in your appointment confirmation email a few minutes before your appointment begins.
• We are here to help. If you have any issues with the above, please contact us via email at hello@thedietologist.com.au

We recommend providing as much information about your health as possible before your consultation so we can tailor our recommendations to your unique circumstances, and bloodwork can be particularly useful! Collate your pathology results from the last 6-12 months before your appointment and email them to us at hello@thedietologist.com.au.

Please email us after you are booked in and one of our practitioners will review your history and make suggestions for you to request from your doctor, please allow adequate time to see your doctor and arrange these tests so we have the results for the consultation, we require a *minimum* of 48 hours to reschedule your consult without a fee.

No. The consultation fee covers the expertise and knowledge of your dietitian and the design of your bespoke plan and recommendations, which are emailed to you after your session, including where to purchase your products. Due to the individual nature of each supplementation plan, our fee does NOT cover any of the costs of purchasing the supplements or the ongoing costs of re-purchasing your products.

For Australian clients only. Yes, we are registered with all private health insurers. We can provide a digital receipt via email after you attend your consultation with us for you to claim back a rebate if you have private health with dietetics cover (please check with your insurer for rebate amounts and your coverage as well as any terms and conditions). We are also recognised by Medicare; you may be eligible for a Chronic Disease Management Plan or Team Care Arrangement Plan from your GP (general practitioner), which entitles you to claim a rebate for up to five appointments with an allied health professional each year. Speak to your GP to see if you’re eligible and ensure you provide your documentation to us before your first consultation. We can process the rebate on your behalf after your consultation. We also accept Eating Disorder Care Plans, which can entitle you to up to 20 dietitian appointments per year. You are also welcome to pay out of pocket if neither option is relevant to you.

Your dietitian will complete a thorough nutrition assessment (don’t worry, it’s nothing like an exam!) this way, we gather all the data we need to design a customised plan for you and helps us identify what diet, lifestyle, and supplement changes may be needed to optimise your fertility! Then, we discuss your key questions and identify your priorities and goals. Then we chat about nutrition recommendations (usually ideas, suggestions, swaps – we like to keep it practical around here!) and address any of your concerns! We will also discuss what supplementation might be appropriate before finalising your plan after the session.

Yes! Once your appointment is confirmed you will receive a list of recommended labs to discuss with your doctor to complete to allow for us to customise your supplement plan accordingly. Make sure you account for the time to get an appointment with your doctor, pathology request form and the results to return before your appointment with us. Already done all the blood work before? No worries, upload the results when booking or send them via email to hello@thedietologist.com.au prior to your appointment.

Life happens so we offer a flexible way to reschedule your appointment as long as you provide more than 48 hours notice. In your appointment confirmation email, simply hit “Change Appointment” and find a time that suits you in your dietitian’s calendar. You can watch this 60 second video showing you how to do this here. Need help? We’ve got you covered, email us at hello@thedietologist.com.au
