Dr Nicola Guess

Very knowledgeable dietitian - happy with service but quite expensive compared to others.

Very happy with the reassurance and simple advice about my glucose levels and what I should be doing ( not diabetic)

Very helpful session - would have liked more time.

Most knowledgable dietitian I have seen. Competent, clear and very helpful!

Recently had a health check which showed elevated cholesterol and blood sugar. Really not keen on medication so wanted some diet advice. Glad I did. Nicola‘s advice is very clear and practical with a number of options of what I can do if I’m travelling or not able to prepare food at home.

Very clear advice with actionable tips that don’t seem too onerous!

I got some solid advice on a low carbohydrate diet and triathlon training. Very happy and useful to see someone who knows how to interpret a continuous glucose monitor.

I’ve got really bad insulin resistance even though I’m slim and active. I also recently found that I have a fatty liver that confused both my doctors and me. I was really happy that Nicola was able to provide some insight into what I can do for my diet. However, I would’ve liked more time to go through practical things like meal planning and it didn’t feel like we had a chance to cover it properly. I would have preferred a longer appointment so we had a chance to discuss what was wrong, give me a chance to answer the questions and then move onto the practical side of things. Overall though I am happy that at least I have some understanding of what’s going on and what I can do about it. I’ll be having a follow-up MRI in three months so I’ll be able to see how well it worked.

I saw Nicola to get the right diet for my polycystic ovarian syndrome. It’s now three months in and things are going well. I’ve lost 3 kg which isn’t quite as much as I wanted but happily my symptoms are improving, my menstrual cycle is getting more regular and my skin is clearing up. I have found that the low carbohydrate approach really works for me because it helps reduce insulin levels.

I got a CGM recently following a midlife health checkup. I wanted to see Nicola because I thought my glucose looked strange and I was worried about my peaks and crashes. I have Diabetes in my family and wanted to do everything to reduce my risk. Nicola talked me through what my readings mean and gave me a couple of dietary and exercise tips to follow. Overall it was pretty reassuring and I feel happy that the lifestyle that I follow is on the right track.. I’ve been following the advice for about a week and I can see that my dips aren’t as low as they were, but my glucose during the night is lower which I’m assured are all good things! Highly recommend!
