Nourishing your body, supporting your recovery
At Restore Oncology Care, we understand that nutrition plays a vital role throughout your cancer journey. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, currently undergoing treatment, or recovering post-treatment, your nutritional needs are unique—and they deserve expert, compassionate care.
Our accredited practising dietitian, Katherine, is here to provide individualised support and guidance to help you feel stronger, more energised, and empowered to make choices that nourish your body and support your recovery.
Cancer and Nutrition: Why It Matters
Proper nutrition is more than just food—it’s part of your treatment. For individuals facing cancer, nutrition can help manage treatment side effects, maintain muscle mass and energy levels, and support immune health and recovery. Yet cancer and its treatments can often make eating difficult or confusing.
Katherine specialises in oncology dietetics and has extensive experience working with people affected by cancer. She understands the complex relationship between treatment, appetite, digestion, and nutrition—and she’s here to help you navigate it with confidence.
