Purva Gulyani

Meet Purva Gulyani – an Accredited Practising Dietitian and lifelong member of the Indian Dietitian Association. Currently pursuing PhD at Latrobe University. Purva brings over 16+ years of clinical dietitian experience to the table.

In 2016, she founded Diet Yumm in Melbourne, initially with one location, and it has now expanded to 15 sites. Purva’s approach to private practice aligns with her values of promoting sustainable and positive health changes. Purva is not just a practitioner; she’s a firm believer and follower of evidence-based practice, making health guidance as reliable as it is beneficial.

Before calling Melbourne home, Purva led the Department of Nutrition in Bariatric Surgery at a multispeciality hospital in Delhi, India. Notably, she was the first dietitian to attain the Bariatric Care Specialist title by the Surgical Review Corporation, USA (2013-2018). A true advocate for good health, Purva is also actively involved in community work, particularly focusing on improving the health and well-being of the South Asian community. Her commitment to this cause is further reflected in her role as a media spokesperson for Dietitians Australia.
