About Dr Emily Porter
Dr. Emily Porter is a registered dietitian with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), specialising in the management of functional gut symptoms, particularly those associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). She offers comprehensive support, including guidance on low FODMAP diets when necessary, and takes a holistic approach to help clients achieve their nutritional goals, whether related to specific medical conditions, symptom relief, or overall health and well-being.
Her career began in research, where she completed a Ph.D. in virology and worked on various research projects examining the connections between immune responses, viral infections, and microbiomes, including those in the gut and respiratory system. Dr. Porter now applies this extensive knowledge as a dietitian, serving both private patients and the NHS in the capacity of a specialist diabetes dietitian.
Dr. Porter is particularly interested in the role of the gut microbiome in influencing various aspects of health, ranging from metabolism and the immune system to mental well-being. She recognises how disruptions in any of these areas can impact gut health, and she has shared her expertise at scientific conferences. Additionally, she is a health and science writer and offers specialised corporate services. Dr Porter is also an active volunteer for the IBS Network.

Speaking to Emily was extremely helpful, working through a complicated and varied history of digestive health issues, Emily was patient and understanding to my condition and able to offer a wide variety of insights.
My appointment with Dr. Porter was very helpful and having the time to discuss my condition with someone who understood was extremely beneficial to me. I am only sorry that this is not available on the NHS where there is not enough time for specialists to really help their patients.
Dr Porter was very clear in her explanations and advice.
