Is there a difference between a “Nutritionist” and a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist?

Don’t you deserve the  highest level of nutrition counseling? Anyone without adequate training in nutrition, can call themselves a nutritionist, but only a registered dietitian (RD) or registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) has completed multiple layers of education and training established by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND). In addition to holding a bachelor’s degree, an RD or RDN must fulfill a specially designed, accredited nutrition curriculum, complete an extensive supervised program of practice at a health care facility, foodservice organization or community agency and pass a rigorous registration exam. What’s more, roughly half of all RDs and RDNs hold graduate degrees and many have certifications in specialized fields. Source: eatright.org

What can I expect at my initial nutrition visit?

At your first appointment you might find that you do a lot of talking while the dietitian does a lot of the listening. Typically, this initial session can last between 90-120 minutes.

The first visit includes an assessment of overall health, medical history, medication and supplement usage, goal setting, weight and dieting history, activity/exercise routine, a review of favorite foods and eating habits.

Follow-up visits are scheduled according to individual needs and will focus on maintenance and monitoring your progress. These sessions can last between 15 to 90 minutes.

If I’m coming to see you for weight management, will I be required to purchase special foods, snacks or shakes?

No, we design a meal plan based off of your current lifestyle and food preferences. We believe having you part of this process is crucial to a positive outcome.
