- BSc Nutrition, PgDip Dietetics, MSc(Dist), NZRDietitian, Accredited Sports Dietitian
Jo is presently on maternity leave.

I grew up on the west coast of the South Island and during school, when I became the national 400m champion my interest in nutrition was sparked. I realised just how important your diet is when it comes to achieving your peak performance. I completed my Dietetics degree, Masters and now am working towards a PhD in the area of gut health and obesity. Alongside my research roles, I have worked in several different parts of the world in an exciting array of nutrition jobs and have many years of experience in private practice. Recently I have enjoyed undergraduate teaching roles at both University or Otago and Massey University. I have a passion for working one on one with people to help them to look and feel their best as well as overcome any health challenges they are facing!

The practice will be closed from the 25th of December, reopening on the 11th of January.
A nurse is available 24-hours a day during this time and can refer you to a doctor for a telephone consultation if required.
