Rachel Hodnett

Hello! I’m Rachel Hodnett, a HCPC registered dietitian with a strong academic and clinical foundation in nutrition and dietetics. I hold an MSc in Nutrition and Dietetics from the University of Hull and a BSc (Hons) in Food Science from University College Cork. My journey into dietetics has been shaped by a deep commitment to evidence-based practice, compassionate care, and empowering individuals to make sustainable lifestyle changes. I’ve completed diverse clinical placements across gastroenterology, surgery, and bariatric care, working closely with multidisciplinary teams to deliver holistic, patient-centered nutrition support. My experience includes managing challenging cases, implementing tailored feeding regimens, and communicating effectively with patients of all backgrounds. Outside of clinical work, I’ve volunteered with Meals on Wheels, helping prepare and serve nutritious meals to older adults, and I’ve worked in pharmacy settings where I developed strong communication and leadership skills. My focus is on realistic, long-term dietary strategies that support overall health and well-being. As a freelance dietitian, I offer personalised nutrition guidance rooted in science, empathy, and practicality. Whether you're looking to improve your eating habits, manage a health condition, or simply feel better in your body, I’m here to support you every step of the way. Let’s work together to build a healthier, more balanced life.
