Services

 Only some plans cover Registered Dietitians. Appointments with Rachel are covered by some extended health plans in British Columbia. Check with your insurance company to see if you can make a claim.  

If you complete the Short Intake Form, at least 48 hours prior to the service time, Rachel will seek information from your insurance company regarding coverage, and if permitted by your insurance company, she will make the claim for you.

Rachel can talk to your doctor only if you give your permission to do so by completing this release of information form.

Deposit of $50 must be paid to book an appointment. You may also submit a pre-authorization from your insurance company to secure a booking. A full refund will be given with 48-hours notice of cancellation. This allows our office to seek a replacement. With twenty-four to forty-eight (24 to 48) hours notice, will reschedule or refund $25. No refunds for less than 24-hours notice. Short notice missed appointment fee for people with health insurance: $50. The only exception to this policy is to protect the health and safety of yourself and others due to circumstances related to serious accidents, contagious illness and weather advisories. 

When working with couples, Rachel focuses the appointment on the person with the most pressing nutritional concerns.  However, all recommendations given by Rache consider all family members involved.  When booking as a couple please book a 45-minute appointment back-to-back with a 25-minute follow-up to ensure there is enough time. The cost of this appointment is $200. If covered by insurance this will be billed out as $100 each.

You do not need a referral to unravel the nutrition confusion.  However, if you do have a doctor referral, the office can send labs and consultation reports that can help make clinical nutrition recommendations.  Your doctor can use the forms found here to make a referral
