QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Your questions answered
Everything you need to know before taking the first step.
What happens during my first consultation?
Before we meet, I will aks you to complete a detailed health questionnaire and food diary so we can make the most of our time together.
Your consultation is a full, unhurried conversation - we go through your complete health history, your current symptoms, your diet, your lifestyle and your goals.
At the end, you receive a detailed written report with personalised dietary advice, lifestyle recommendations, supplement suggestions and practical guidance tailored specifically for you.
You will also receive 2 weeks of email support to help you settle into any new protocol.
Can a nutritionist really help with menopause symptoms?
Yes — and often significantly. Nutrition directly influences how your body manages the hormonal shifts of menopause. What you eat affects oestrogen metabolism, cortisol levels, blood sugar stability, gut health and inflammation — all of which influence how severe your symptoms are.
Rather than simply managing symptoms with supplements alone, a nutritional approach looks at the whole picture: your diet, your gut microbiome, your stress load, your sleep and your hormones working together.
Many of my patients come to me after years of feeling dismissed or unheard, and find that targeted, personalised nutrition support makes a real and lasting difference.
What health conditions do you work with?
I work with women and men of all ages, specialising in gut health, hormone balance, menopause, fatigue, autoimmune conditions, metabolic health and weight management.
I also support patients taking GLP-1 medications and those with complex, longstanding conditions who feel they haven't had answers elsewhere. I use a functional medicine approach — looking for root causes rather than simply managing symptoms.
Can I work with you if I'm not based in Exeter?
Absolutely. Many of my clients are based across the UK or overseas — you do not need to be local to work with me. I offer virtual consultations via Zoom, and any functional testing, if needed, is sent directly to your home and collected from there, so there's no need to visit a clinic or hospital.
Do you offer online consultations?
Yes — I offer virtual appointments via Zoom for patients across the UK and internationally, as well as face-to-face consultations from my clinic at Holmedale Health in Exeter, Devon. Both options offer exactly the same personalised service and access to functional testing.
What kind of testing do you offer?
I offer a wide range of functional diagnostic tests. These include comprehensive hormone panels such as the DUTCH Test, gut testing including GI-MAP, CSAP and SIBO breath testing, nutritional analysis, organic acids testing (OAT), food intolerance and allergy testing, genetic DNA testing, and toxic load testing for heavy metals and moulds. Testing is always optional — we discuss what's appropriate for your symptoms and your budget before recommending anything.
Do you need to have functional testing to work with you?
Not at all — testing is always optional. Many patients make significant progress through nutrition and lifestyle changes alone. Where testing is recommended, it's because it will give us genuinely useful information that changes or accelerates your plan — not as a box-ticking exercise. If we do decide testing is right for you, all kits are sent to your home and collected from there, so there's no need to visit a clinic or hospital.
How long does it take to see results?
This varies depending on your symptoms, how long you have been experiencing them, and how much underlying imbalance there is to address.
That said, most patients notice meaningful improvements within four to eight weeks of following a personalised plan — particularly in energy, sleep quality and mood. Symptoms that have been present for many years, or that require functional testing to unpick, naturally take a little longer.
I will always be honest with you about realistic timescales, and I am with you throughout the process — not just for the initial consultation.
