Frequently Asked Questions
How do I prepare for my appointment with a dietitian?
Think about your health goals and challenges you’d like to work on.
Make a list of medications/supplements and times you take them.
Write down questions you want to ask during your appointment.
You are welcome to bring a family member or friend for support.
You may keep a food log for a few days prior to your appointment.
Keep an open mind and a positive attitude.
Do you offer virtual or in-person appointments?
We offer both! You can meet with our Registered Dietitian in-person at our comfortable, wheelchair-accessible St. Anne’s Road office, or you can choose a secure, one-click video call from the comfort of your own home.
How is a Registered Dietitian different from a nutritionist?
In Canada, “Dietitian” is a protected title. A registered dietitian (RD) is a regulated health professional who has completed a university degree in nutrition, rigorous clinical training, and passed a national board exam. They are your most trusted source for evidence-based nutrition advice.
Do you put clients on strict diets?
No. We do not believe in restrictive diets or rigid rules. Our philosophy is to provide personalized, practical nutrition strategies that fit your lifestyle, culture, and preferences. We focus on building a flexible and sustainable relationship with food.
Do you offer direct billing to insurance providers?
We currently do not offer direct billing. However, we provide detailed, itemized receipts after every session that you can easily submit to your insurance provider for reimbursement. Most major insurance plans cover Registered Dietitian services—we recommend checking your specific policy to confirm your coverage details.
