Hilda Yan
BNutDiet(Hons)

Hilda graduated with a Bachelor of Nutrition & Dietetics with Honours from Monash University in 2015. Since then she has worked in clinics all across Melbourne, and has helped many patients from various ages and cultural backgrounds in improving their diet, health and wellbeing.

Hilda specialises in nutritional management for weight loss and diabetes. Her interest in modifying food intake for weight loss stems from personal experience struggling with her weight since childhood. Since becoming a dietitian she has found the balance in enjoying physical health, whilst still being able to enjoy her favourite foods and the social aspect of food. She is passionate about using her own past experiences, combined with her extensive training, work experience and the latest scientific evidence to assist her patients to have a healthy lifestyle without restriction and guilt.

Hilda has a strong family of diabetes, and is motivated to prevent developing diabetes herself. She has extensive personal experience in the area and has worked with endocrinologists and diabetes educators in Southeast Endocrine Associates (Narre Warren) to assist many patients to reverse their diabetes, lose weight and reduce or stop their diabetes medications.

Hilda is also able to consult in Cantonese and Mandarin.

Outside of work, Hilda enjoys crocheting, listening to true crime podcasts, weight training at the gym (even though she hated exercise growing up!) and volunteering at her church and local community.
