Dietician/Nutritionist

Can anyone recommend a good and sympathetic dietician for my daughter who is up at Edinburgh university? She has been very poorly with anorexia and is much better mentally at least, but does need some structured help and support to help her put on weight and look after herself in Edinburgh. The university has been hopeless, just giving a a leaflet about anorexia and a couple of website suggestions. I realise we may have to pay for this, but it would be so worth while to get her back on track and happy.

I saw Helen Gestwiki back in 2009 at Napiers and she was lovely. I don't think she's there anymore although she may have a clinic elsewhere - she has a website if you google. Napiers website says their nutritionist is now Charlotte Heald. Can't offer an opinion on her but I did go to Napiers for acupuncture etc. and always found them supportive.

Has your daughter tried student counselling at UoE? I think they offer a few free sessions. Also student disability service?

Hope your daughter feels better soon.

I second Helen - she's really good and easy to talk to.

Thanks so much both of you, - I will do some investigating...
