Nutrition and Dietetics - Gateway Health

Accredited Practising Dietitian Logo

We recognise that everybody is unique and has different needs and aspirations when it comes to eating.

Gateway Health’s Accredited Practising Dietitians (APDs) are university-qualified experts who provide personalised nutrition advice and support.

We can work with you to help you understand nutrition advice and build skills to make the best choices for your circumstances.

We can help with:

building confidence in the kitchen to prepare and cook meals
food budgeting and meal planning
navigating a supermarket and reading food labels
increasing awareness of the food your body needs for good health
dietary choices to help manage conditions such as diabetes, bowel problems, and recovering from illness or surgery.

Access

Our APDs are able to see people individually and in groups at our Wangaratta and Myrtleford offices.

We sometimes work with people in their own homes and at community venues such as supermarkets and cafes.

We provide outreach services to Benalla Rural City, Mansfield Shire, Alpine Shire, and the Rural City of Wangaratta.

A fee may apply – We will discuss this with you during intake.

Contact Allied Health Intake on 03 5723 2097 for more information.

There are a range of different groups you (or someone you care about) can join, as well as individual consultations.

Group activities are tailored to suit the needs and interests of different groups. For example, one of our most popular group activities is the Men’s Cooking Group, which helps to build confidence in the kitchen around food preparation and knowledge of healthy eating.

Feel free to ask about this or other groups currently available to join – they can vary a bit from time to time.
Yes, please feel free to get in touch. Many of the people we work with have been referred to us by doctors, home visitors, family members, friends and others.

Participation in diet and nutrition activities is voluntary, so the person you are interested in helping will need to give their agreement if they are going to take part. But we welcome all enquiries, particularly if this may help you to discuss the subject with a loved one.
