Where is the clinic located?

In-person appointments take place at The Beacon Hub, Portishead, North Somerset. Virtual appointments are available UK-wide.

How do I book an appointment?

All appointments are booked online. Visit drrebeccahiscutt.com/nutrition-services and use the booking link. Before your appointment you will be sent a health questionnaire to complete.

What should I expect from an in-person appointment?

You complete a health questionnaire before the appointment so Dr Hiscutt PhD can prepare. The session starts with an InBody 270 body composition scan (approximately 15 seconds), followed by 45 minutes of one-to-one clinical consultation. You leave with a personalised metabolic action plan with specific steps tailored to your scan results and your situation.

The Root Cause Clinic

Clinical nutrition to help your energy, hormones, and health

You shouldn’t have to guess when it comes to your health.

Whether you are navigating the complexities of perimenopause, struggling with persistent fatigue, or managing changing health markers like blood pressure and glucose, you deserve more than wading through endless online information. You need clinical clarity and personalised guidance.

I am Dr Rebecca Hiscutt PhD, a Registered Dietitian. I’ve spent my career translating complex science into life-changing health strategies. Now, I’m bringing that clinical expertise out of the high-end private sphere and directly into the heart of our community with my Root Cause Clinics.

Root Cause Clinic – metabolic health nutrition in Portishead

Why a pop-up clinic?

Traditional private clinical dietetics can be expensive and time-consuming. Inspired by the high-impact models that work so well in my NHS role, I’ve designed a streamlined, economical way for you to access professional health clarity without the 12-week waitlist or the premium price tag.

Virtual Root Cause Clinic appointments are now live for patients across the UK. Same clinical approach, same one-page health action plan, from wherever you are.

The goal is 45 minutes of dedicated clinical focus, grounded in your body composition data. One personalised plan. Immediate action.

Is this for you?

This clinic is designed for those living high-responsibility lives who need to feel like themselves again. It is ideal if you are navigating:

Perimenopause and menopause Hot flushes, disrupted sleep, low energy, mood changes, and the sense that your body has shifted in ways no one warned you about.
Fatigue and energy crashes Feeling tired all the time, waking unrefreshed, or hitting the wall every afternoon despite a full night’s sleep.
Brain fog and cognitive symptoms Difficulty concentrating, poor memory, mental slowness, or struggling to find words mid-sentence.
Migraines, headaches, and pain Recurrent headaches or migraines, joint pain, aches and pains, or musculoskeletal discomfort without a clear cause.
Metabolic markers Rising blood pressure, blood glucose, pre-diabetes, or unexplained weight changes.
Gut symptoms Bloating, IBS, digestive discomfort, or changes in how your gut has been behaving.

How the pop-up works

To keep these sessions high-impact and affordable, we strip away the post-session admin and focus entirely on you.

01 — Before your session

The clinical head-start

Once you book, I will send you a health and lifestyle questionnaire. By sharing your medical history and current diet with me in advance, I can have this information ready to use during your session.

02 — The InBody scan (15 seconds)

The metabolic picture

You stand on the InBody 270 barefoot and hold two handles for 15 seconds. It measures visceral fat level, skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage, and metabolic rate — the data behind how you feel, made visible.

03 — The consultation (45 mins)

Joining the dots

I work through your scan results and clinical history together, connecting your metabolic picture to your symptoms. You can ask anything about supplements, specific concerns, or how to fuel a demanding life. We build your plan together.

04 — What you leave with

Your personalised metabolic plan

You leave with a personalised metabolic action plan covering the specific nutrition, movement, and lifestyle changes most likely to shift your picture — grounded in your scan results, not generic advice.

Included with every appointment

See exactly what you get: your body composition report

Each scan maps your muscle, visceral fat and metabolic engine score, visit by visit. The numbers power the advice: Dr Rebecca Hiscutt PhD reads them alongside your history and symptoms, so your plan is personalised to you.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does an appointment cost?

In-person appointments are £95 and include an InBody 270 body composition scan. Returning patients receive a 10% discount (£85). Virtual appointments are £60. All bookings are made online.

What does the InBody scan involve?

The InBody 270 is a medical-grade body composition analyser. You stand on the device barefoot and hold two handles for approximately 15 seconds. It measures visceral fat level, skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage, and estimated metabolic rate. Dr Hiscutt PhD interprets the results with you and uses them to build your plan. Read more about what the scan measures and why it matters.

Can I book a virtual appointment?

Yes. Virtual Root Cause Clinic appointments (30 minutes, £60) are available for patients across the UK. The clinical approach is the same and you leave with a personalised action plan, though the InBody scan is only available in person.

How do I book?

All bookings are online only. Use the booking link on this page. You’ll receive a health questionnaire after booking so Dr Hiscutt PhD can prepare before your session.

How is this so affordable?

A standard private dietetic appointment typically costs £120 or more and does not include clinical body composition analysis. Dr Hiscutt PhD keeps the clinic as accessible as possible while including the InBody 270 scan as standard — because the data it provides makes the consultation significantly more targeted.

What does 45 minutes include?

The InBody scan takes approximately 15 seconds, leaving the full 45 minutes for one-to-one consultation. Because the scan results give Dr Hiscutt PhD a concrete metabolic starting point before the clinical conversation begins, the time goes further than it otherwise would.

What symptoms and conditions do you cover?

Perimenopause and menopause symptoms, fatigue and energy crashes, brain fog, migraines and recurrent headaches, joint pain and aches, metabolic markers (blood pressure, blood glucose, pre-diabetes, weight changes), and gut symptoms including bloating and IBS. Dr Hiscutt PhD takes a root-cause approach, looking at what is driving symptoms, not just naming them.
