The Your Healthy Body Clinic is a multidisciplinary process involving a Dietitian/Diabetes Educator/Nurse Practitioner and General Practitioner. We recommend allowing up to 1.5 hours in the clinic for your appointments.
First you will see the Dietitian/Diabetes Educator, Leyanne Duncan who will discuss your progress/goals, your current habits, and take your measurements of weight, blood pressure and other relevant health items. Be assured that the Dietitian/Diabetes Educator also consults with the General Practitioner to ensure any medications required are the most appropriate for your situation.
Finally, you will see the General Practitioner, who will draw on all the information gathered from Leyanne Duncan to make a considered assessment of your condition and make any further recommendations as to your wellbeing. -
The GP/ Dietitian will let you know at your appointment when they would like to see you next. This varies from person to person so be sure to book your next appointment as soon as you need to avoid missing out!

You are under the Department of Veterans’ Affairs; you may be able to secure a referral from your GP.
You have chronic conditions; you may also be able to secure a referral from your GP called a GP Management Plan/Team Care Arrangement.
Or if a specialist has referred you, e.g. endocrinologist, gastroenterologist.
You have complex medical history/ongoing conditions.
You may be eligible for Medicare rebates on dietitian sessions under an Enhanced primary care plan or eating disorder plan – ask you GP about your eligibility. Dietitian services can also be claimed on private health if your level of cover offers it.

You can book a telehealth appointment with just the GP for any script enquiries. Email any questions through to reception and we will discuss with the practitioners if an appointment is needed to discuss it further with you.
Genesis of
Your Healthy Body
6 years ago, Dr Caetlin Jopson and Leyanne Duncan initiated the idea of starting a high quality multidisciplinary team to provide best practice for looking after patients with diabetes.
“We started with one patient, running one clinic once a month. We saw a huge need to manage patients struggling with their weight. As such, the clinic transitioned to a weight loss clinic with the vision of delivering high quality comprehensive and holistic care.
Their own journey in the past 6 years has involved an increased understanding of the complexities of weight management and achieving good health.”
The Your Healthy Body team understands that it is not a case of eating less and moving more–weight management is much more than focussing on the scales. The team provide individualised care to their patients with a broad focus and specialise in treating patients for type 2 diabetes, weight management, healthy ageing, menopause as well as identifying individual barriers to weight loss.
The clinic is now called Your Healthy Body clinic (YHB).
