PLACEHOLDER

Nutrition counseling for adults and children who have diabetes or pre-diabetes can help you personalize your plate and create a sustainable nutrition approach that fits your individual needs today and into the future. Our team of registered dietitian nutritionists is dedicated to helping you improve your health through evidence-based nutrition education and counseling.

Medical nutrition therapy (MNT) is an essential component of comprehensive health care. Individuals with a variety of conditions and illnesses can improve their health and quality of life through medical nutrition therapy. During an MNT intervention, dietitians counsel clients on behavioral and lifestyle changes required to impact long-term eating habits and health. Medical nutrition therapy includes:

A comprehensive nutrition assessment determining the nutrition diagnosis.
Nutrition intervention planning and implementation using evidence-based nutrition practice guidelines.
Monitoring and evaluation of an individual's progress over subsequent visits.

Our team provides medical nutrition therapy and other services for:

Diabetes: types 1 and 2, gestational and pre-diabetes
Insulin pump therapy
Blood sugar management/continuous glucose monitoring education
Weight management
Gastroparesis
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

A physician referral is necessary for all appointments. It gives the dietitian the medical information needed to plan an appropriate and individualized counseling session and is also required for insurance. Please check with your insurance company to see if your medical condition is covered for dietitian services.
