Diet and nutrition

​Diet and nutrition focuses on the relationship between food, drink, nutrients and your health. It looks at the ways in which your diet could help control your symptoms, complement your treatment and aid your recovery. When you're staying with us as an inpatient, we integrate nutrition into your overall care. Our dietitians work closely with your medical team to make sure you get the nutrients you need after treatment and as part of your recovery. You can also access our nutrition services as an outpatient to help with weight management, chronic conditions such as diabetes and IBD, recovery from injury, and to optimise your wellbeing. Your dietitian will work with you to create a personalised plan and set achievable goals to maintain a healthy, balanced diet. Personalised treatment plans can include specific dietary advice, nutritional supplements and support with artificial feeding methods such as nastrogastric tube feeding. We also run a sports nutrition clinic at London Bridge Hospital and offer dietary support for children at The Portland Hospital.
