ADMAN LA CLINIQUE

Registered dietitian in London and online

Most people arrive having already tried a lot, and having been told contradictory things by people who all sounded certain.

We work on the conditions where food genuinely plays a part, and we say so where it does not.

We don't sell supplements, and you don't need test results before a first appointment. We work from the results you may already hold, alongside your GP or consultant, and we advise you or refer you back when a test might be needed for your care.

Registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (DT033015), a member of the British Dietetic Association (23426), and registered in France (RPPS 10007285934). Qualified as a dietitian in 2019, in practice with children, adults and older adults. We follow the guidance of the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, the body behind the clinical guidelines used across the NHS.

Recognised by private health insurances

Consultations may be covered by your private health insurance. We are recognised by AXA, Bupa, Vitality, Aviva, WPA, Allianz, The Exeter and General & Medical.

What your policy covers decides the appointment. Your insurer pays us its own agreed rate, and the length of your consultation follows that rate. Session limits are set by your policy, as is whether online consultations are covered.

WHAT HAPPENS IN A CONSULTATION

Sixty minutes. We read any results you may already hold before we meet, then go through your symptoms, your history and how you actually eat: around your work, your travel and your week, not around an ideal one.

You leave with written guidance on the way you are eating now, and with a letter for your GP, or for the consultant who referred you, if something needs their attention. We don't diagnose and we don't prescribe.

BUILT ENTIRELY AROUND YOUR LIFE

Fourteen days of meals, built around how you cook, what you have time for, and what you will genuinely eat. Not a template with your name on it.

We build it around your week: what you can buy near where you live, and what to order in the restaurants you already go to. Where it helps, we introduce foods you may not have cooked before, teff or black rice for instance, chosen for fibre and for your taste.

This is our 14-day protocol. It follows a first consultation, and is booked separately.

SIX WEEKS TO MAKE IT YOURS

Six sessions, one a week, and the 14-day protocol built at the start, then reworked each week around what actually happened.

You can look up almost anything now. What you cannot look up is which of it applies to you, in what order, and what to ignore for the moment. That is the work, and it changes week by week.

By the end, the aim is that you are doing this without us.

The conditions we work on

Women's health

Menopause and perimenopause, endometriosis, PMOS, previously called PCOS, and fibroids, and nutrition before and during fertility treatment. Bone health, the triggers worth identifying, and the supplements that are not worth buying.

Learn more

Gastroenterology

Crohn's disease, IBS, coeliac disease and other digestive conditions. A low FODMAP trial where it is indicated, and giving you back the foods a narrowed diet has taken away.

Learn more

Allergies and food intolerance

Coeliac disease, food allergy and food intolerance, in adults and in children. Working out what is actually causing the reaction, and eating well within the restrictions that remain.

Learn more

Weight and metabolic health

Weight is rarely about willpower. We work on what actually decides it: insulin resistance, PCOS, thyroid function, sleep and the shape of your working week, with a plan built around your real routine rather than a template.

Learn more

Skin health

Eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and coeliac-related rashes have a documented nutritional side; acne does not, and we say so. We work on the skin conditions where food genuinely plays a part, alongside your GP or dermatologist.

Learn more

Other chronic conditions

Type 2 diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis. With diabetic neuropathy we don't treat the nerve, we work on what drives it: blood sugar, across the day rather than in a single reading.

Learn more

Mental health

Eating when your appetite, energy or motivation have gone. And the nutrition checks NICE asks for alongside antipsychotic medication: weight, nutritional status, blood glucose and lipids. We work on the nutrition side, not on the illness.

Learn more

Sport nutrition

Training energy, recovery, and eating while competing or travelling abroad. Supplement choices checked against anti-doping rules, in line with UK Anti-Doping standards.

HOW IT WORKS

The discovery call

Free, fifteen minutes, and it commits you to nothing. We tell you whether we are the right people for what you are dealing with, and if we are not, we say so.

The waiting area where patients are met before their appointment

The consultation

Sixty minutes, online or in person, built on what your clinicians have already found and on what you actually eat. You leave with written guidance on the way you are eating now. This is the usual starting point.

The 14-day protocol

The precise plan: fourteen days of meals built around your week, your kitchen and the shops near you. Booked separately, and after a consultation, because it is built on what the consultation found.

The six-week programme

The 14-day protocol, and then six weeks of making it work. Each week we look at what held and what did not, and the plan stops being ours and becomes yours: reading a label for what matters in your case, knowing which nutrients are yours to watch, turning each step into something that fits the week you already have. Six weeks is long enough for that to settle, and by the end the aim is that you are doing this without us.

What people say

“The programme started 3 months after the birth of my second child at a time when my landmarks were being turned upside down. As a mother of two young children, I struggled to find a rhythm and time for myself. Dounya took the time to understand my situation and my life, taking into account breastfeeding and lack of sleep. We went over the basics of nutrition, reviewed the different food groups, and looked at hydration. Thanks to the weekly check-up that allowed time to put things in place little by little, I established a stable eating routine that was right for me. Dounya was very available and attentive to my needs. As a result, while I was away for 6 months of the programme, after 3 months, I lost my pregnancy weight, regained energy, and returned to work serenely by keeping my new eating routine. Just thank you very much, Dounya.“

Djoké D.

HR Director

“She came into my life just when I had a food allergy and my life seemed unsatisfying! She was able to adapt to my lifestyle, she made herself available, efficient, and highly competent. Even after looking elsewhere for answers for a year, she was MY solution. Thanks to her know-how and her knowledge, I apprehend my body, my mind in correlation with my food because one does not go without the other, definitely! And know that even if you have children and little time to devote to cooking, Dounya Adman coaches and challenges you with incredible ease !!!!! To try it is to adopt it, so sincerely go for it: it is time for you to think of yourself!“

“After working with several nutritionists, Dounya Adman was able to fully meet my requirements through her availability, and her commitment which was more than food but also mental. She was able to adapt my preparation according to my sports trips which were abroad. Dounya Adman responded when I was going through times of weakness.“

Adil G

High Level Athlete

“I had to exercise, eat healthy vegetables. Something I was don't do at all! ... But thanks to her motivation and listening skills, I managed to lose weight without any "suffering". Dounya perfectly adapts the program according to needs and does not deprive you of anything! I can never thank her enough; thanks to her, I learned a lot about the body and not taking back what I lost. I feel much better in my body! I highly recommend it; it is pleasant and makes sure you understand your needs while meeting them perfectly!“

“I am an open water swimmer, and we started on a very difficult spot as I was preparing for the crossing of Lake Windermere (11 miles). Against all odds - Dounya worked closely with me to prepare in Nutrition exactly what my body needed to face this race, and the results just spoke for themselves. I won the race but above all, I felt completely different to my previous races, when it came to the feedings, interval and what will help - Dounya prepared a really methodical plan to help me along the way. We are still working together and now preparing for a bigger challenge. I can honestly recommend Dounya, as she will listen to your needs, work with what your body actually requires, follow through how you are feeling and reacting to the diet and coming along with you to achieve results. I couldn't be happier I found her :)“

“With Dounya, I found a comprehensive support system, a program perfectly tailored to my profile and lifestyle. I received kind-hearted support and consistent follow-up. Thanks to her guidance, the fog lifted from my eyes. I became aware of life again and rediscovered the taste of food. It felt like reconnecting with life, listening to, and understanding the workings of my body. I experienced a complete resurgence of mental and physical dynamism, along with weight loss. She is an outstanding nutritionist who offers a personalised approach. She is very kind-hearted and attentive. Her program is of high quality and yields lasting results! If you have a taste for good things, this is the place for you :)! Thank you again for this wonderful achievement! I highly recommend her!“

“I even had classes on macro and micronutrients which helped me enormously to understand how my body uses what I eat! I got results after a few weeks (slimmer waist, increased performance at the gym ...) Many thanks for your coaching, your professionalism, and especially your support! I recommend it to everyone!“

Saidath O.

Designer & Founder of La Chaise Couture Paris

“She takes time to explain how the body works and how she plans the meals so that the clients understand everything to make it easier to implement and follow through even after the end of the program. Her friendliness makes it more comfortable to share how you feel because as we all know, it can be difficult to commit to change.“

Oumou S.

“A real programme, constant information for any question. All based on my lifestyle and eating habits. I learned how to eat healthily and understand what is important for my body. It wasn't a "diet", it was a real learning experience. Impatient by nature, it's not always easy to embark on these kinds of adventures, in which you have to wait for results. But this time the weekend weigh-ins were very encouraging. I was never hungry, the quantities were perfectly adapted, there were even days when I thought there were too many. I learned how to eat healthily.“

David G.

“Since the COVID period, I have gained a lot of weight, which caused me a lot of joint pain and injuries. From 2020 to September 2023, I tried several methods to regain my pre-COVID weight, but I only experienced yo-yo results. I was desperate because it was mentally and physically exhausting and irritating. Additionally, being an accountant, a sedentary job, didn't help at all. During my first call with Dounya, a complete analysis of my situation was conducted to identify what was wrong. I decided to choose a three-month program. Dounya immediately detected my problems. For example, I wasn't hydrating enough and I wasn't eating enough protein or energy-giving foods. Every week, I had a new program based on how I was feeling. Today, I have lost the weight I wanted to lose, but more importantly, I have regained my energy, and I no longer have pain. I have relearned to eat properly while enjoying myself, and I have resumed physical activity without injury. In conclusion, Dounya is a kind, meticulous person who listens and is an expert in her field. I highly recommend her.“

DOUNYA ADMAN

Founder of Adman La Clinique

She would rather tell you nutrition will not fix something than sell you a programme to find out. That is why the pages on this site say where food helps and where it does not.

Most people who come to her have already tried a lot and been told a lot. She works out which part of it applies to you, then builds the plan around the life you already have: what you cook, what you buy, where you eat. The closer it sits to your week, the less effort it takes to keep.

Registered as a dietitian in the UK and in France, qualified in 2019, working to NICE guidance and to British Dietetic Association standards. She has worked with athletes at international level and with people managing long-term conditions alongside the doctors already treating them, and she sees children, adults and older adults.
