Consulting Via Video Conferencing
Nowadays busy schedules of people may not permit in person visits to a dietitian. Besides that, not all people have the luxury of access to a dietitian in the area they live in. Virtuous Nutrition is reaching out to you to help make consultations easier and more accessible by providing Online (Zoom or Skype) consultations.
Even if you are thousands of miles away, online consultations enables you have a face-to-face Medical Nutrition Therapy, General Healthy Eating or Weight Management consultation (via webcam) with your dietitian from the comfort of your home or office. During consultation your dietitian can clarify nutrition information by projecting relevant diagrams directly onto your screen.

Video Conferencing Consultation Process
Initial Consultation: During your first consultation appointment, an Accredited Practicing Dietitian will conduct a lifestyle and nutrition assessment. This includes looking into your medical history, current medications, lifestyle pattern, eating habits, and food intake history. We will discuss in detail what you want to achieve (e.g. better control of blood sugar levels for diabetes; reduce constipation; weight gain/loss etc.) and then tailor recommendations to meet your health goals.
Follow-Up Consultations: During your follow-up consultation appointment, an Accredited Practicing Dietitian will discuss your progress, address any challenges that you may have encountered along the way, and re-assess recommendations to meet your health goals. The number of follow-up sessions required varies from client to client. We understand that certain life events can push health goals to the back burner, but consistent follow-up sessions can provide you with ongoing support and help you stay on track to learn even more skills.
Please make sure you have read our Payment/Fee Terms & Cancellation Policy before booking your consultation with us.
