Frequently Asked Questions About Nutrition Counseling
What is the difference between a nutritionist and a registered dietitian?
In Ontario, anyone can call themselves a nutritionist, whereas registered dietitian is a regulated title. Registered Dietitians are accountable to provincial colleges for safe, competent services and have rigorous training standards, with a 4-year degree, practical training program & completion of a national exam.
What should I expect from an appointment with a dietitian?
A dietitian will translate the evidence-based science of nutrition into real-life strategies helping you to distinguish between fact and fiction. They will create a personalized plan for you, helping you to set small, sustainable goals to meet your larger nutrition & health-related goals.
How often should you see a dietitian?
"This is individual! Most people would benefit from seeing a dietitian at least once to ensure they're getting the right balance of nutrients to optimize health. For others managing weight or chronic diseases, more frequent appointments are beneficial, from every 2-3 weeks initially to every 3-6 months once a plan is established. Many private insurance companies cover at least partial costs of dietitian services."
Why is nutrition essential?
Nutrition is essential for basically everything! From maintaining energy levels, preventing and managing most chronic diseases, influencing mood and mental outlook and maintaining all body functions (from large organs to bone to nail growth), nutrition plays a role.

This is a great place to take your classes or exercise therapy. I was there for the GLA:D exercise programme led by Sarah Phillips. She was clear, concise and encouraging when needed. The reception staff are friendly and professional. All in all, a very good experience and convenient location too.

Trevor was great! He provided detailed information (which I asked for 😀) to understand my injury (damaged ligaments on my foot), and provided a very reasonable and doable exercise/physio regimen, which he adjusted as my recovery progressed. Staff at the clinic are also lovely! Thank you!

I had the pleasure of working with Sarah Phillips through my recovery from a torn Achilles. She kept me informed at every stage, explained what to expect, and adjusted my therapy to overcome any challenges. Thanks to her expertise, I made consistent progress and had an excellent overall recovery at the end.
Beyond her skill, Sarah’s warm and friendly personality made every session enjoyable and motivating. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of expert, compassionate physiotherapy care.

My good friend recommended me to the Dr. was very honest and very helpful in telling me what to go going forward. Gave me exercises to do at home. How to handle stairs with less pain.
Would highly recommend him if you are in pain of any kind. Very helpful and near public transit.

I booked a series of appointments to try and establish a good therapeutic schedule and after the first one the therapist insisted I come back to see her earlier than planned - which I did... booking a 45 minute follow-up that turned into a distracted 20 minutes of her note taking... they did adjust the billing to reflect a 30 minute session but it was not an auspicious start.
Then I received a garbled voicemail that seemed to cancel my third appointment - which I had booked a month in advance. It blamed the error on someone at the clinic who forgot to update the schedule... but both my follow-ups to confirm / reschedule were completely ignored.
Consider another company or at least another location...
