What to expect
As a patient with Nutrition First you will initially complete a simple nutrition questionnaire providing us with information about yourself and your personal health goals.
We generally find it takes at least three consultations to maximise results:
Your initial consultation – one hour*
We will explore your aims and goals, current diet/lifestyle, past medical history, including familial predispositions, and any previous test results. At the end of your first consultation you will be provided with:
-
A nutrition plan
-
advice on any nutritional tests that would be of benefit
-
a supplement programme, as necessary
Your first follow-up – up to one hour
We will review your progress, interpret and explain any test results, update your nutrition and supplement plan and set new goals going forward.
Further follow-up consultations – 30 mins or one hour
These will be arranged as necessary to continue your health journey and monitor your progress so that you feel fully supported for as long as you need.
*Initial couples consultations (for couples trying to conceive) are one and a half hours
During the current Covid-19 pandemic we are fortunate to be able to continue to provide all our services to you via Zoom or telephone.

Testing
Tests can provide an invaluable resource, both as a tool for the discovery of underlying causes of your symptoms, and, as a monitoring tool to help optimise health.
At Nutrition First, we use a range of tests to help enhance your nutrition programme, including blood, urine, breath, stool, saliva and hair tests. Your nutrition consultant will advise you during your consultation if you require any tests. Please also provide your consultant with any previous test results which you feel are relevant.
Supplements
Food will always be the mainstay of any nutrition programme and dietary changes are key to the success of your programme. In an ideal world a healthy diet would provide all your nutritional requirements.
However, unfortunately we do not live in an ideal world and the stresses of everyday life, poor health and pollution increase our daily nutrient needs. While over-farming, poor quality soil and mass production methods reduce the nutrient content of our food. Therefore, supplements can provide a boost to bridge this gap particularly during times of poor health when our requirements are greater.
At Nutrition First we will only recommend the very best quality supplements tailored to the needs of each individual.

What our patients say...
“I have been seeing Sharon for six months having been unwell for a long time. Sharon has really helped me learn how to understand my body and how what I eat and my lifestyle, particularly stress, impacts on my health. I have noticed some substantial positive changes and been impressed with how she has started to unpick the complex nature of my health. Most of all I have been hugely impressed with Sharon’s wealth of knowledge about the body, nutrition and the importance of supplementing appropriately. I really value the advice that she gives, especially as I see it working to improve my life. I highly recommend her."
LR
Senior Midwife
“Having increasingly suffered from a bloated feeling in my stomach and heartburn in my early 50’s I was recommended to see Miki. The initial consultation and follow up was outstanding and the results over the following 12 months were quite simply life changing! I could not recommend Miki and the practice highly enough!”
NS
“Sharon has been such an amazing support with the issues that my 6-year-old daughter has been experiencing with her tummy.
Always so thorough and informative. Sharon really hears you and listens and you can really feel how caring and passionate she is about her work.
Sharon explains everything so clearly and goes through all the options of treatments.
I really felt like my daughter was in the best hands.”
RL
“I totally trust Miki with my health. She’s extremely knowledgeable and really cares about supporting her clients. She’s persistent in finding the source of any health concerns. Gives you the facts with clear explanations, in a no nonsense way, so you know what you need to do. Diligent and professional, she’s also pragmatic, recognising that we’re human. As an added bonus to all of that, she’s an absolute delight to chat with.”
LB
"I went to see Sharon when traditional routes had failed me in finding a solution to the symptoms I was experiencing. I had been suffering debilitating PMS including extreme fatigue and mood swings for some time.
Sharon helped me to achieve my goal of getting to the root cause of the problem and identified a hormone imbalance through bespoke diagnostic testing previously unavailable to me.
With her guidance and expertise, I was able to make diet and lifestyle changes and introduce natural supplementation to resolve the issue. After years of suffering, I was finally better and in control, all without medication. I continued to use the knowledge I gained from working with Sharon to help me stay on track including when my husband and I decided to start trying to conceive. I have no doubt that what I learned from Sharon enabled us to conceive quickly, without problems and I have since sought her support in my next goal, a healthy pregnancy.
Sharon has been part of my journey to understanding my cycle and making it work for me to becoming a mother to be.
I would recommend Sharon to any women looking for support to navigate their health in a natural and holistic way."
SW
“I first made contact with the clinic after experiencing distressing and debilitating digestive problems for more than 30 years and after trying every diet, remedy and alternative therapy I came across. So I approached my initial appointment with Miki with a little scepticism but, was quickly reassured by her obvious knowledge and expertise, and particularly encouraged to hear that she recognised my symptoms and believed that they could be overcome.
Miki's initial hypothesis was backed up by a scientific test and after so many years of struggle, it was such a relief to finally have a firm diagnosis. Miki has gently encouraged me through a systematic programme of recovery involving dietary changes and supplements, and approached my treatment holistically; taking all aspects of my life into account. My symptoms are now so minimal and I can sincerely say that the programme has, for me, been life-changing. I can't thank Miki enough for all her expertise, care and support.”
HW
“I have been a client of Dr Sharon Pitt for some time now, usually consulting over the telephone due to the amount of travel involved but as I was visiting some of my family in Oxford opted to attend her clinic in person this time and put faces to the names.
Sharon is a delight, a very professional approachable person putting you at ease, always listens attentively, considers the options of treatment of my ailments, discussing them with me before we decide on the best natural treatment path to take.
I find this approach is excellent for me as a client and I have without doubt had the benefit of feeling a lot better, improving as the days and months have gone by since my first consultation with Sharon last year.
The follow up consultation notes, including the way forward plan after each appointment is very helpful too.”
PP
“I was recommended to Miki for her thorough and holistic approach to health. I had been to see every traditional medic. and completed countless tests, none of which identified the cause of my utter exhaustion. I was only 36yrs old and had no energy for work, sport, family nor friends – I was just existing. I spoke with Miki who asked questions that no one else had, and she listened, for the first time I actually felt heard.
Miki recommended tests, and the results came back positive for fungal overgrowth. Since a child I had always had a favourite pillow, which over the years had accumulated dribble and moisture resulting in mould and I had inhaled spores. Miki agreed with me a tailored diet, gentle exercise and lifestyle programme, and a supplement protocol - within eight weeks the improvement was immeasurable! It hasn’t been an easy journey, and sometimes it has felt like 10 steps forward and nine back, but Miki explained what to expect and encouraged and supported me every step of the way. I am now back at work again, enjoying my beloved tennis, seeing friends, and looking forward to starting a family. I cannot thank Miki enough – she gave me back my life!”
SK
“Helen Ford has been my Nutritionist for the last 10 years and has always been so supportive and nurturing. She has a real passion for eating well and has always given me recipe inspiration! She is such a lovely lady and I would highly recommend her.”
JG
“Working with Helen has made such a difference to my health and wellbeing. Her straightforward, accessible approach has helped me improve my sleep, blood sugar, digestion and post-menopausal health. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
CS
“Hi Helen, we were due to start IVF very shortly as we had just signed the consent forms when I found out I was pregnant! After almost 4 years of trying, I can only put down to the changes we made to our lifestyle and eating habits along with multivitamins you advised us to take. Once again, thank you.”
CM
“I really enjoyed Helen’s nutritional cookery session. It was so nice to see somebody natural and relaxed rather than the usual formal style of some cooking sessions. It made me feel as if I was sitting her kitchen sharing the evening.“
