Specialist obesity, weight management and bariatric education for healthcare professionals
I provide specialist education, clinical supervision and consultancy for dietitians and healthcare professionals working with obesity, weight management and bariatric surgery.
My sessions combine current evidence with practical clinical experience, helping healthcare professionals understand complex issues, build confidence and translate evidence into everyday patient care.
I offer one-off teaching sessions, tailored CPD and individual or team-based clinical supervision. Sessions can be adapted to the experience of your audience and the needs of your service.
My aim is simple: to make complex topics clinically useful.
