Chelsea and Westminster Hospital has been providing HIV services since 1988. The Nutrition and Dietetics Department is an important part of the HIV service, and integral to the care of our HIV+ patients. We provide the following services:
- Outpatient Nutrition and Dietetic Clinics at the Kobler Clinic, West London Centre for Sexual Health and 56 Dean Street
