Review of Symptoms and Health History
I believe the first step toward better health is understanding your story. That’s why I begin every consultation with a detailed review of your symptoms and health history. This helps me see the bigger picture — not just what you eat, but how your body responds, and the experiences that have shaped your wellbeing.
Why This Matters
Your symptoms tell a story. Whether it’s bloating, reflux, constipation, or fatigue, these signals give us clues about what’s really happening in your gut. By combining this with your health history — past diagnoses, medications, lifestyle factors, and even stress — I can build a plan that’s safe, effective, and uniquely yours.
What I Look At
When we go through your history together, I’ll consider:
- Digestive symptoms such as pain, bloating, reflux, or irregular bowels
- Any medical conditions or past procedures that may affect your gut health
- Current medications or supplements
- Lifestyle factors like sleep, stress, and exercise
- Eating habits, food preferences, and potential intolerances
My Approach
I don’t just tick boxes — I listen. I believe in creating a space where you feel heard and understood, because your experiences matter. Together, we’ll connect the dots between your symptoms and your lifestyle, so we can uncover the root causes and not just manage the surface problems.
The Outcome
By the end of this review, you’ll have more clarity about what might be driving your symptoms. And I’ll be able to design a nutrition strategy that fits you — one that respects your health history, your goals, and your day-to-day life.
