Assistance with nutrition and weight management

Do you have questions about nutrition, such as diabetes, obesity or unintentional weight loss? A dietician gives personalised nutritional advice that suits your situation. You can also without reference make an appointment.

A dietician helps with, among other things:

• diabetes (including during pregnancy)
• cardiovascular disorders
• gastrointestinal complaints
• overweight or underweight
• food allergies or intolerances
  Good nutrition is also especially important for the elderly, for example in dementia or after a stroke.

Make an appointment

Dietitians work in health centres, hospitals or independently. Sometimes a home visit is possible if coming to the practice is inconvenient. During the first appointment, you and the dietician discuss your health situation, lifestyle, wishes and goals. Based on your situation, the dietician will prepare tailor-made advice, tailored to what is feasible and pleasant for you. Together with the dietician, you decide how many sessions are needed.

Costs and reimbursement

• Dietary advice is 3 hours per year reimbursed from the basic insurance. This falls under the own risk.
• Do you participate in a chain care programme through your GP, such as diabetes? Then the costs are often fully reimbursed.
• Additional reimbursement is sometimes possible with supplementary insurance.
