vandna PATEL
Hello! I’m Vandna. I currently work as a Registered Paediatric Dietitian in the NHS, specialising in Gastroenterology and Burns. Although I love my role within the NHS, I’ve set up VP Dietitian to continue to offer personalised, evidence-based nutrition advice but making it accessible to those seeking prompt advice. I also want to be able to spend more quality time with those in need.
I have Coeliac Disease and Oral Allergy Syndrome (Pollen Food Syndrome), for which I adhere to a strict gluten- and soya-free diet, including other food restrictions. I have also been a lifelong vegetarian, and more recently transitioned to a vegan diet (in the past 10 years) due to milk-intolerance. Through my love of cooking, own struggles and experiences of such a diet for both health and cultural reasons, I am committed to empowering others to manage their condition through diet. I understand the challenges and want to hear about yours and help you overcome these.
Let’s work together to create lasting, positive change.
