Southport · Dietitian and Sports Dietitian
Accredited Practising Dietitian and Accredited Sports Dietitian
Selena supports nutrition for healthy ageing, chronic health conditions, sports performance, weight goals and practical eating strategies, with Southport appointments and telehealth options.
Who this is for
Avanti confirms whether it is the right service, which funding may apply, where sessions can happen, and what to do next.
Online suitability
Selena is based at Avanti Southport and can support other Avanti centres by telehealth where the nutrition goal, health context and current information are suitable for online delivery.
Often suitable online
Chronic condition nutrition, sports nutrition, weight goals, food intolerance discussions and healthy ageing strategies can often start online when the context is clear.
Check first
Enteral feeding, cancer, Parkinsons disease or complex health needs may need extra clinical information before the right appointment setting is confirmed.
Use the enquiry to share the preferred Avanti centre, nutrition goal and any referral context so the team can confirm suitability.
What to send first
Mention the preferred Avanti centre, the nutrition goal, and why an online appointment would suit.
Questions
Nutrition education, meal planning, review, chronic condition support, weight goals and sports nutrition can often be discussed online when the referral context fits.
Yes. Many people search for a dietician online, but Selena is an Accredited Practising Dietitian. Avanti can confirm whether an online dietitian appointment or a Southport appointment is the better fit.
Avanti will confirm the right setting. Some complex nutrition, feeding or assessment needs may be better handled in person or with extra clinical information first.
Start with an enquiry. Avanti will confirm the service, location, funding option, and whether an appointment or class is the right next step. Asking doesn't commit you to anything.
Many people use NDIS, a Medicare referral, DVA, WorkCover, aged-care funding or private funds. Which applies depends on your situation and the service - tell Avanti what you have and they'll confirm it with you.
Fees depend on the service and your funding pathway. Tell Avanti your funding type in the enquiry and they'll explain the relevant costs up front.
Next step
Mention the preferred Avanti centre, the nutrition goal, and why an online appointment would suit.
Share the nutrition goal and preferred Avanti centre so the team can confirm whether Selena can support the enquiry online.
Tell Avanti what's going on. Who needs support, where, and the main concern - in your own words.
Avanti comes back to you. The team confirms the right service, clinician and funding option before any appointment is set.
You decide. Asking doesn't commit you to anything.
