We were referred to Fiona by the Dietician in our NHS Hospital as they didn't have anyone there with enough expertise in ARFID, which my child has. Fiona was really caring and pleasant throughout, and involved our son in the process even though he was only 5 years old. Throughout the process, she was extremely flexible around scheduling appointments at convenient times for us, and allowed us to choose how frequently we want to meet and in which direction to proceed.She has lots of expert knowledge, and managed to help us to get our son into a routine of getting used to foods that he had not previously managed to. She was always very honest and upfront about where she is going with the therapy.When she had worked with us for a number of months, she discovered that there was an emotional blockage stopping our son from progressing further with regular dietetic therapy, so she did research and advised us how to proceed.I highly recommend anyone who is looking for a dietitian who is professional, caring and sensitive, and 'won't take you for a ride', to use Fiona.
