have to say

Jo is fantastic. I started working with her before undergoing the Whipple procedure to remove a tumour from my pancreas, as my digestive system was to change quite drastically. She was so well informed about this procedure and what I'd need in the build up and after. She is thorough, helpful, kind and very quick to respond - always looking to answer questions and find solutions which is invaluable when working alongside the NHS who are brilliant but don't necessarily have the time to investigate complicated problems thoroughly.
I came to Jo for some advice on how to help my elderly father, who was suffering with weight loss as a result of esophagitis. Jo’s advice has proven invaluable as my father’s appetite is now increasing and he’s feeling better in himself already after only a few weeks. It’s been a big relief to have this specialist guidance and help with arranging a prescription; I would have no hesitation in recommending Jo to anyone who has similar concerns for a loved one.
Outstanding Dietician. Worked with Jo as a Senior HPB CNS to manage Complex Patients with Liver, Pancreas, Biliary tract and GI Cancer. Jo uses a holistic approach to manage nutrition and works closely with the multidisciplinary team to achieve the best outcomes for patients. She works at a very advanced level also recommending further investigations to find other causes of problems such as persistent diarrhea, bloating and other GI symtoms. She is meticulous, passionate and dynamic about her work.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

It’s thought that around 1 in 20 of the UK population has IBS.

If you have IBS diagnosed, you may have been recommended the Low FODMAP diet, which is a therapeutic diet for the treatment of IBS and can be very effective at getting things under control.

However, the low FODMAP diet is not the first thing that we usually recommend to our clients, as there’s often many other diet and non-diet strategies that we can implement to significantly improve symptoms without the need for dietary restriction. However, if the low FODMAP diet is indicated then rest assured we’re qualified to be able to support you through the 3 phases of the diet.

You may not have a diagnosis of IBS yet, and if that’s the case, during our assessment we discuss how the condition is diagnosed and what tests are required to rule out other conditions before a diagnosis of IBS is made. We can arrange those necessary tests for you via your NHS GP, or privately if you prefer.

Hazel and Jo are our IBS specialist dietitians.

You can book individual consultations. Alternatively, choose our package of 3 appointments, which is ideal for the IBS client and saves you 10%.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

IBD includes Crohn’s disease, Ulcerative Colitis and Microscopic Colitis.

It is a lifelong condition which causes inflammation in the intestines and which is very different to Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

The role of diet and nutrition is an important part of managing symptoms and we work with you to provide individualised dietary recommendations in line with the latest evidence. Working with a dietitian can provide symptom relief as well as ensuring you’re getting all the nutrients you need. Where possible, we will coordinate with your IBD team to provide a multidisciplinary approach to your care. 

Hazel is our IBD expert dietitian, having worked in research at Kings College London and who has 3 paper published on the topic.
