About

At Queen Square, our Dietitian Services are offered in two distinct ways to best serve your needs:


One-on-One Nutrition Counselling (Referral Required)



What are Dietitian Services?

For rostered patients, our Registered Dietitians (RD) provide personalized Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT). During an initial 60-minute appointment, the dietitian will assess your dietary intake and medical history to develop a nutrition care plan tailored to you.



Who is this for?

Individual counselling with a dietitian can help rostered patients manage many conditions, including:

  • Pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes management 

  • Heart-healthy eating (i.e. hypertension, cholesterol) 

  • Malnutrition, vitamin, and mineral deficiencies 

  • Pediatric nutrition concerns (e.g., picky eating) 

  • Allergies or intolerances 

  • Celiac disease, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), and other digestive concerns 

  • Food insecurity 




How do patients access this service?

A referral from your Queen Square family doctor is required to access individual counselling with a Registered Dietitian. 




What can patients expect?

At your initial appointment, you and the dietitian will work together to identify your nutritional concerns and challenges. The dietitian will assess your dietary intake and medical history to develop a personalized nutrition care plan. The number of follow-up appointments will depend on the nature of your medical concerns. 




What support is included?

Based on your care plan, our dietitians will help you reach your goals by:

  • Identifying foods or fluids to increase or decrease. 

  • Providing one-on-one nutrition education and counselling. 

  • Supplying educational handouts and tools.


Please speak to your Queen Doctor if you are interested in our Dietitian Services for workshops and/or individualized care.


We do not provide dietary advice or recommendations about a referral.


For general inquiries, please contact (905) 453-1453 x1
