Online Dietitian & Nutritionist (Video Consultations in English)

If you live outside Türkiye, travel often or simply have a busy schedule, online consultations let you work with a specialist dietitian without fitting clinic visits into your week. I hold online consultations from Istanbul, in English, by video call, for clients in the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the UK, Europe and elsewhere. The approach is the same as in my office: a careful assessment, a plan built around your life, and regular follow-up.

Who online consultations are for

• Expats and international families who want an English-speaking dietitian, including clients in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Doha.
• Women preparing for pregnancy, expecting or breastfeeding who would like regular support from home.
• People who want structured help with weight management, including those using weight-loss injections prescribed by their doctor.
• Clients with a medical condition whose doctor recommends nutrition support, such as fatty liver, high cholesterol or gout.
• Busy professionals and frequent travellers who prefer a flexible format.

How the sessions work

1. Assessment form: after you get in touch, I email you a detailed nutrition assessment form covering your health history, routine, eating habits, food preferences and goals.
2. First consultation: we meet by video or voice call on WhatsApp or Zoom at an agreed time. If you have blood test results from the last six months, please share them; they help me tailor the plan.
3. Your personal plan: I prepare a plan based on your habits and adapted to where you live, using foods you can find in your local supermarkets and the cuisine you enjoy, whether that is Middle Eastern, Asian, European or Turkish.
4. Weekly measurements at home: once a week you weigh yourself on your home scale and measure your waist and hips with a tape measure. You do not need special equipment.
5. Follow-up: we meet on the same day each week or at the interval we agree, review your progress and update the plan. Between sessions you can reach me on WhatsApp with questions.

Time zones and scheduling

Istanbul is on GMT+3 all year. That makes scheduling straightforward for many regions:

• UAE (GST, GMT+4): Dubai and Abu Dhabi are one hour ahead of Istanbul.
• Qatar and Saudi Arabia (AST, GMT+3): Doha and Riyadh are on the same time as Istanbul.
• UK: two to three hours behind Istanbul, depending on the season.

Evening and weekend-friendly slots can be arranged where possible, so sessions fit around work and family life.

What we can work on online

Almost every service I offer works online, including pregnancy nutrition, weight management and nutrition support while using GLP-1 weight-loss medication, which is always prescribed and monitored by your doctor. If you live in the Gulf, you may also find these pages useful: online nutritionist for Dubai and Abu Dhabi and online nutritionist in Qatar (Doha).

Online or in person?

The main difference is measurement. In my Ataşehir office I use a professional body composition analyser; online, we rely on your home scale, tape measurements and how you feel. If you are in Istanbul, you can also choose in-person sessions or combine both.

Frequently asked questions

Are online consultations as effective as in-person sessions?

For most goals, yes. The assessment, planning and follow-up are the same; what matters most is regular contact and a plan that suits your life. Results vary from person to person.

Are you licensed in the UAE or Qatar?

I am a specialist dietitian based in Istanbul, Türkiye, and I provide online nutrition consultations from Istanbul. I do not hold a UAE or Qatar licence, and online counselling does not replace care from your local doctor.

Which language are the sessions in?

Sessions are held in English or Turkish, whichever you prefer.

Do I need blood tests before starting?

They are not required to begin, but recent results requested by your doctor help me personalise your plan.
