Hi, I'm Rhiannon
Specialist Coeliac Disease Dietitian, Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) & Nutritionist (BSc)
The 'GF' in GF Dietetics? It stands for more than just Gluten Free.
It's about Good For you, Gut Friendly nutrition — getting your gut feeling good again, and actually enjoying food while you do it. (Though for my coeliac clients, Gluten Free is very much part of the deal too.)
I'm Rhiannon — an Accredited Practising Dietitian, Nutritionist and someone who lives with coeliac disease and IBS. I started GF Dietetics to offer the kind of specialised, genuinely understanding support I wished I'd had at my own diagnosis.
Other conditions and health goals I work with:
- PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome)
- Heart health and high cholesterol
- Bariatric surgery
- Nutrition for older adults and healthy ageing
- Fostering a healthy relationship with food
I provide telehealth consultations via video call. To enquire or book, click the button below.
Why see a dietitian specialising in coeliac disease?
A coeliac diagnosis is just the beginning.
Many people leave their gastro or GP appointment with a "go gluten free" and not much else — but navigating the gluten free diet safely, confidently (without it taking over your life!) is a skill that takes time, knowledge and the right support.
As a dietitian who also lives with coeliac disease, I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience to help you do this properly.
What you'll walk away with
- Confidence that you're actually doing this right
- Fewer symptoms, better energy, and a clearer understanding of your diagnosis
- The freedom to eat, travel and live (without coeliac disease running the show!)
Learn the real facts on a gluten free diet for coeliac disease:
- Gluten free label reading, avoiding cross contamination at home and while eating out
- The real facts on trace gluten — what "may contain" actually means, gluten thresholds, and when to be cautious vs. when you can relax
- Understanding oats — the evidence is more nuanced than a simple yes or no, and whether oats are right for you depends on your individual situation
Receive guidance to understand your post-diagnosis care:
- What follow-up monitoring you actually need and how to understand changes in your coeliac blood tests over time.
- Identifying and treating common nutrient deficiencies including iron, B12, folate, calcium and vitamin D
- Supporting gut symptoms that linger even after going gluten free
Be supported to live well with coeliac disease:
- Eating out, travelling and socialising with confidence — not anxiety or fear
- Practical gluten free meal planning that's realistic and enjoyable
- Emotional support from someone who genuinely understands what it's like
P.S.... Why seeing a real dietitian is worth it (over Dr. Google, Facebook groups or AI)
When you're newly diagnosed (or years in and still struggling), it's tempting to turn to Facebook groups, Google searches or AI tools for answers. While these can be convenient and helpful for the basics, they can also come with a real cost.
The advice you follow matters — not just for how you feel day to day, but for long-term health. Misinformation about trace gluten, oats, cross contamination and nutrient needs is widespread in online spaces, and what works for one person in a Facebook group may be genuinely harmful for another.
AI tools can be great to summarise general information, but they can't assess YOU — your symptoms, your bloodwork, your diet history, your lifestyle, or whether your gut has actually healed. Google will give you ten different answers to the same question. And Facebook groups, however well-meaning, are not a substitute for clinical expertise.
It means that the advice you receive is EVIDENCE based, CURRENT and tailored specifically to YOU. Someone is accountable for the recommendations you receive. You're supported to understand the WHY behind your management, not just given a list of rules. And also, red flags can be identified early — things an online community or chatbot simply aren't equipped to catch.
You deserve more than a best guess. You deserve clinical care from someone who knows coeliac disease inside and out — and who also knows what it's actually like to live with it.
