Meet Paul Twomey – Accredited Practising Dietitian & Founder of DNDC

Hello, my name is Paul, and I’m the owner and manager of Darwin Nutrition & Dietetics Clinic. I’ve been an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) and proud member of Dietitians Australia since 2015.

Born and raised in Darwin, I have a deep connection to the Northern Territory and a strong commitment to supporting the health and wellbeing of my local community. Over the years, I’ve gained valuable experience working across a range of settings—including private practice, community health, aged care, and hospital environments. This broad background has equipped me with the skills and insight to support people with a wide variety of nutritional needs.

I was drawn to the field of dietetics by a genuine desire to help people live healthier, more fulfilling lives through balanced, evidence-based nutrition. I believe in a practical, person-centred approach to diet and lifestyle, focusing on sustainable habits rather than quick fixes. Whether you’re managing a medical condition, working toward a personal goal, or simply seeking to improve your eating habits, I’m here to support you with compassion, knowledge, and tailored advice.
