Zoe RocheThe last time I tried sticking to a diet, I lasted three days—three glorious days of kale smoothies and chicken breasts before the pizza cravings became too strong to resist.
Let’s be honest—we’ve all tried diets for one reason or another. Maybe you just weren’t dropping the stubborn weight no matter how little you ate, or maybe you’re like me and ended up in the drive-through of your favorite fast-food place.
Either way, because I understand the struggles, I did my research on the best dietitians.
So, whether you’re looking to lose weight or manage a medical condition, here’s who I’d call in Auckland.
How much does a dietitian consultation cost in Auckland?
A dietitian consultation in Auckland costs at least 150 NZD.
This is just an estimate—the actual cost depends on the length of the consultation, the dietitian’s experience, and other factors.
1. Dr. Sylvia Goedeke – Fearless Nutrition
Address: 72 Apollo Drive, Rosedale
Contact Details: +64 210 349 245
Operating Hours:
- Tuesday & Wednesday, Friday – 8:30 AM to 5 PM
- Thursday – 10 AM to 7 PM
- Saturday – 10 AM to 4 PM
Dr. Silvia Goedeke is an expert in women’s health, particularly in hormones and fertility issues.
I love how she really takes her time with you, asking plenty of questions and running all the necessary tests to get to the root of what’s making you feel unwell.
But Dr. Goedeke’s expertise goes beyond women’s health—she’s also highly knowledgeable about digestive problems, autoimmune diseases, and chronic inflammation.
Moreover, she’s a strong advocate of the keto diet for these conditions. This diet is low in carbs and high in healthy fats.
What I appreciate most is that she doesn’t just hand you a diet plan and send you on your way. She takes the time to explain why certain foods benefit your body and how to incorporate them into your daily routine.
She also ensures that you stick to a healthy diet so you’re never left feeling starved.
The only downside is that her in-person appointments fill up fast because she’s only available on-site on Saturdays.
Provides fantastic resources and advice
“Highly recommend!!!! I came to Sylvia with gut issues and low energy. I’d been to the doctor and had tests done. I was told nothing was wrong. Sylvia looked at my symptoms and found a lot of the issues were caused by my diet. She was extremely knowledgeable and taught me a lot of things that have helped immensely. She tailored a low fodmap diet so it was high protein and vegetarian – not an easy task! She provided fantastic resources and advice, replied quickly to emails when I needed additional help. I’m so glad I finally took the plunge to see a dietitian!!!!”

Knowledgeable and professional nutritionist
Sylvia is the real deal. Its great to find a truly knowledgeable and professional nutritionist. She helped my son and his partner to radically change their eating behaviour in a healthy direction. She does this with a combination of deep science, human insights and a sense of humour but no judgement, which allowed her to achieve breakthroughs where other techniques fail. Highly recommended.

2. Hannah Erikson – Mission Nutrition
Address: 1 Gibraltar Crescent
Contact Details: +64 9 948 7999
Operating Hours: Wednesday & Thursday – 9 AM to 2 PM
Hannah Erikson, a registered dietitian at Mission Nutrition, is making a significant impact on the lives of individuals struggling with weight management.
Having attended one of her workplace wellness workshops, I was immediately struck by her confident yet compassionate approach. Her emphasis on mindful eating and understanding the emotional drivers behind food choices truly resonated with me.
I love that she creates a safe and supportive environment, too. She makes it easy for you to explore your relationship with food without judgment.
She also offers telehealth appointments for added convenience. However, she currently doesn’t provide in-person consultations.
Despite this, many have benefited from Hannah’s expertise in managing conditions like endometriosis and PCOS. I appreciate how her nutritional guidance helps alleviate symptoms and improve overall well-being.
I also value how skilled she is in addressing specific eating patterns. With her support, many have successfully overcome binge eating and emotional eating.
Lovely to deal with
“Hannah has been super lovely to deal with – Listening to my concerns and picking up on things I haven’t thought of, which made for a very educational experience so far. Looking forward to continuing my journey with Hannah.”

3. Christine Everest – Clinical Dietitian
Address: 8 Nugent Street, Grafton
Contact Details: +64 21 135 3697
I was particularly impressed with Christine Everest’s deep understanding of the FODMAP diet.
I love that her guidance isn’t just about eliminating high-FODMAP foods—she helps you understand why certain foods trigger your symptoms and provides practical strategies for managing them long-term.
Her specialization in women’s health nutrition is equally impressive. Many women appreciate how she helps them navigate the nutritional needs of pregnancy, breastfeeding, and menopause.
It can be overwhelming, but Christine offers clear and easy-to-understand advice that makes the process more manageable.
I also appreciate how empathetic and supportive she is, connecting with her clients on a deeply personal level.
However, booking an appointment with her can be challenging—her schedule is often full due to her popularity.
An exceptional dietitian with genuine compassion
“Christine is an exceptional dietitian with deep expertise and genuine compassion, particularly in women’s health. Throughout the process, I felt truly supported and understood as we worked to make changes to my diet that have significantly enhanced my overall well-being. Her holistic approach is both insightful and empowering, with advice tailored to my individual needs and lifestyle, making it easier to incorporate into my daily routines. I highly recommend Christine to anyone seeking professional and compassionate dietitian support. Many thanks to Christine for all her guidance!”

4. Livi Kitson Clark – Liv-On Nourish
Address: Northcare/5 Home Place, Rosedale
Contact Details: +64 210 242 1958
Operating Hours:
- Tuesday, Thursday- 3:30 to 7 PM
- Wednesday- 8 AM to 5 PM
- Friday – 3:30 PM to 5 PM
Livi Kitson Clark of Liv-On Nourish offers online and in-person consultations, which I find incredibly convenient.
Her holistic approach is exceptional—she integrates healthy eating with body composition, sports performance, and gut health. This well-rounded method ensures your nutrition plan isn’t just about weight loss.
Livi also emphasizes balanced meals, portion control, and diverse food groups—an approach that athletes particularly benefit from. In fact, many have shared how much they appreciate her nutrition plans for optimizing peak performance.
I love that she provides strategies for fueling workouts and optimizing recovery nutrition. This level of personalized attention is invaluable for anyone striving for athletic excellence.
Additionally, her attention to gut health is commendable. Many appreciate her guidance on prebiotics, probiotics, and dietary modifications to support a healthy gut microbiome.
The only minor drawback is that the meal plans in her nutrition guides can sometimes feel a bit repetitive and lack culinary excitement.
Kind and compassionate dietitian
“Liv is not only a highly competent dietitian, but is also kind and compassionate and truly cares and this made working with her so much easier. Liv provided nutritional guidance I learned so much from her about proper eating schedules and how nutritional needs vary in my day to day routine. Not only do I have more energy during exercises and long runs, I sleep better. Thank you Liv!”
–Carel Pretorius Google Reviews
Takes your nutrition to the next level
“Highly recommend working with Liv if you want to take your nutrition to the next level. Liv is very knowledgeable and breaks everything down in simple steps. Regular check-ins will keep you on track until you’re ready to keep walking the path alone. This is not a quick fix in form of a challenge, this is a long lasting change of your diet.”

5. Tessa Bollard Registered Dietitian
Address: 126A Remuera Road, Remuera
Contact Details: +64 20 4100 5578
What sets Tessa apart is her specialization in pediatrics and medical ketogenic diets. I love that she helps manage children’s diabetes through dietary adjustments—many parents have expressed deep gratitude for her support.
Several parents shared how Tessa helped their children struggling with insulin resistance by creating a meal plan that focused on low-glycemic index foods and portion control. This approach led to a significant improvement in their blood sugar levels.
I also appreciate Tessa’s approach to children with selective eating. Instead of imposing strict dietary rules, she focuses on gradually introducing new foods in a natural and non-restrictive way.
Additionally, her expertise in designing and managing medical ketogenic diets is exceptional. This specialized diet is often crucial for managing conditions like epilepsy, particularly in children.
However, her services aren’t without drawbacks. Several clients have mentioned difficulties in securing appointments due to her limited availability.
Expert, patient, and friendly
“I saw Tessa because I wanted to make sure my two year old son is getting all the nutrients he needs. I cannot recommend Tessa more. She explained everything I needed to know about my sons diet, answered all my questions (which in the end weren’t related only to my son), she also made sure I am getting all the nutrients I need as I am still breastfeeding…I am really very grateful to Tessa for her expertise, patience, friendliness, help, advice and I strongly recommend her to anyone worried about their diet because she is the right person to talk to.”
–Vedrana & Nikica Dropulic Google Reviews
Provides practical advice
“We went to see Tessa because we were looking for science-based information on what to eat on a regular basis to stay well into middle age. My partner is a vegan so we were keen to find ways to make sure she’s getting enough of the nutrients she could be missing out on. Tessa was great, she set my mind at ease about a few things I was worried about (but needn’t have been) and gave us the practical advice we needed. Thanks to Tessa we’re now much more confident about the dietary choices we’re making. Five stars!”
