Joy Y. Erdile (Kiddie), MSc, RD Verified Listing

EXPERIENCE & EXPERTISE

I’m Joy Erdile (Kiddie), and I’ve been in private practice in Coquitlam since 2008. My services fall into three categories: Routine, Digestive Health, and Therapeutic Diets for mental and physical health conditions. Since people's needs don’t always fit into a single category, Routine Services and some Digestive Health packages can be combined at a reduced rate compared to purchasing them separately.

I also offer a Customized Nutrition Package for conditions not covered by existing packages.

The Meal Plans that I design are based on your unique requirements — including food preferences (likes and dislikes), as well as religious, cultural, or ethical restrictions. You can choose from several different types of dietary patterns, including vegetarian, Mediterranean, and low-carb or keto (previously offered through a dedicated low-carb division). Regardless of the approach you choose, you won’t need to weigh and measure your food or yourself constantly!

If you have extended benefits that reset at the end of the year, now is the time to get started. You can learn about the different hourly services and packages I offer below, and for information about booking services, using your extended benefits, payment options, and clinical hours, please visit the FAQs section on my web page. To learn about costs and getting started, please visit "Book an Appointment".

PRICED TO FIT

All my services continue to be priced at or below the Reasonable and Customary Fee Limits of five major extended benefit insurers in BC, as well as Alberta, and Ontario, where I am also licensed.

I. ROUTINE SERVICES
Routine Services are available on an hourly basis or as packages.

i - HOURLY SERVICES

Initial Hourly Consultation – is a non-clinical appointment for you to meet with me, share your goals and health background, for us to discuss various service options, and for you to determine if I am a good fit for your needs. Any remaining time in this appointment can be “banked” for future follow-up services after completing one of the packages.

Clinical Hourly Services – for clinical work by the hour, or for taking follow-up visits on an hourly basis.

Specialty Hourly Services – for nutrition education on a variety of topics, including reducing Constipation and Hemorrhoids, Functional Dyspepsia (“IBS of the stomach”), GERD / acid reflux, Gout, Histamine Elimination, Hiatus Hernia, Dietary Considerations in Hypothyroid, Kidney Stone Diet, and Macular Degeneration.
