About The Clinic
The Family Nutrition Clinic is based in Castle Donington just south of Derby. We have now moved into our permanent address. Now all appointments are available.
Castle Donington is a lovely village set in the midlands close to the rural heart of England. Access is not far from the M1 motorway, north of Birmingham and west of Loughborough.
Whether appointments are via the telephone or Skype, exactly the same attention to detail is afforded as to an in clinic consultation, and a tailor made programme is devised for every patient, as no two people have the same bio makeup.
