What's the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist?

Dietitians must complete an accredited dietetics degree from an Australian university. "Nutritionist" isn't a legally protected title, so anyone can use it, with or without formal training.

What do the professional associations mean?

Esther is a member of Dietitians Australia. Dietitians Australia is the national body for dietitians. Professional associations support their members to keep up with research and good practice.

How does Esther work?

“In our sessions, we'll work together to create practical, evidence-based strategies that align with your goals. I'm committed to collaborating closely with your care team.”

Where can you see Esther?

At home, in clinic or by video. Esther works Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, 9am to 5pm.

At home

Esther visits homes in the northern suburbs of Adelaide. Travel is charged at 50% of our standard hourly rate.

In clinic

Esther sees people at our North Clinic.

North Clinic40 Ann St, Salisbury 5108Get directions to North Clinic

Clinics are open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.

Prefer video? Esther also sees people by telehealth, wherever you are in Australia.

How will you pay?

Private, Medicare and NDIS clients are all welcome.

Private

No referral needed. You pay for each session directly.

See our current fees

Medicare

To claim a Medicare rebate, ask your GP about a chronic condition management plan. A referral on its own isn't enough. With a plan, Medicare covers part of the cost of a limited number of allied health sessions each year, and our team can explain what that means for you.

See our current fees

NDIS

We're a registered NDIS provider. You'll need funding for dietetics in your NDIS plan, then you can send us a referral. Plan-managed, self-managed and NDIA-managed plans are all accepted.

Support coordinators: the key referral details are at the end of this page.
