KneeCAPS Clinicians - Canterbury

I have 16 years Dietetic experience working in the hospital, outpatient and community setting.  I enjoy getting to know my clients, learning what is important to you and working together to achieve your health goals.  With the name, Eat Cake Nutrition, I wanted to break the stigma that certain foods need to be avoided, as all foods have a place in achieving healthy eating patterns.

Conrad Goodhew is a registered dietitian specialising in sport and recovery. The difference that Conrad provides, is that he brings a performance mindset to an industry full of weight loss fads. Not only is he an expert in exercise nutrition, but his Dietetic study also brings a clinical element to the delivery of advice. His ethos is “let’s not overcomplicate this eating thing” as nutrition is fast becoming a complex space, when it really doesn’t need to.

Sarah Munn and Leigh O’Brien are highly experienced dietitians, both with over 20 year’s clinical experience. Sarah and Leigh are passionate about providing evidence based diet and lifestyle advice to improve the health of their clients.

Both dietitians work as part of a pain management team and understand the pain and debilitation often associated with knee osteoarthritis.
