Cases of young people acquiring chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke, etc are increasing. Therefore, it is important to promote healthy eating habits to the public. In line with the government’s primary healthcare treatment and prevention project, our dietetic service focuses on two major areas:
- Medical Nutrition Therapy

Healthy Eating / Health Promotion
Our nutritional needs and health concerns change as we progress from different stage of our lives; from childhood to elderly.
- Childhood
- Adulthood
- Adolescence
- Elderly
Each stage presents different dietary challenges and health issues. Our Dietetic Clinic can keep you informed of the right dietary choices in whichever stage of life you are at.
Our Dietetic Clinic provides a comprehensive dietetic service to clients including nutritional assessment, formulation of dietary advice and education. Dietitian will carry out a full nutritional assessment using a Body Composition Analyser, which uses the latest Bio-electric Impedance Analysis Technology, to measure body weight, body fat percentage and body mass index. A dietary assessment is also carried out. This involves a detailed discussion on personal food preferences and habits, frequency of food groups consumption and assessment of personal nutritional requirements.
Based on these results and/or the presenting clinical condition, a care plan is formulated.
You will be advised on your dietary treatment and given a customised dietetic plan. We will continue to follow up on your progress to such a time that the dietetic treatment is deemed completed and successful.
