Hello! I’m Casey. I am an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) and food advocate who loves eating and cooking delicious food with friends and family while balancing that with good health. I have worked in weight loss surgery for over 14 years I am here to support you on the nutritional aspects of your surgical journey.

I have a strong interest in helping people live healthier and happier lives, especially while going through something as lifechanging as weight loss surgery. I will support your nutritional needs before the surgery and afterwards with a range of individualised sessions to guide your food choices and influence your eating habits. Having a smaller stomach capacity will mean you need to make the things you eat count, and I will help ensure you meet your complex nutritional needs along the way.

My goal is to help you to lose weight in a way that you’ll still enjoy food, eat a wide variety, meet your body’s individual nutritional needs and keep the weight off!

Our sessions can be done in person at Randwick Weight Loss Surgery OR via telehealth (ZOOM) in the comfort of your own home.
