Mrs Dawn Shotton

Dietitian

MSc, BSc Registered Dietitian

I am a nutrition and dietetic expert with significant clinical experience in both private and NHS health care environments. Since qualifying in 1991, I have enjoyed providing and subsequently managing aspects of dietetic services. I have specialised in weight management since 2000, leading on specialist weight management services and heading a bariatric service in the NHS.

I now enjoy working full time in the field as a freelance dietitian, supporting people with weight management concerns. My broad experience has proven useful in helping many people with weight management. Combined with my counselling qualification, I believe my approach focuses on the person and circumstances as well as the desired outcome.

I have specialised in weight management since 2000. I now work closely in bariatric (weight loss) surgery and also offer ongoing support for people who need advice with stalled weight loss, pregnancy and vitamin and mineral advice post surgery.

Lead dietitian across Teeside and Durham for Bariatric surgery (2010-2014)

I enjoy outdoor activities with my husband - we go on long distance walks and have challenged ourselves to walking all the Wainrights by 2025 - we still have quite a few to conquer! I have two adult children at university and who keep me up to date and on my toes with the online developments that are required these days!
