I have been a registered dietitian and leader in the nutrition field for 35 years, which sounds longer than it actually feels to me. But nutrition is my lifelong calling and my enthusiasm as only grows stronger over time.
I have worked in HMOs, clinics, medical practices, teaching hospitals, universities, and probably every possible healthcare setting helping people of all ages with all kinds of medical conditions to benefit from medical nutrition therapy. I had a successful private practice in Providence, Rhode Island for 15 years, and all together, I have had more than 20,000 patient visits for obesity, eating disorders, and medical nutrition therapy for chronic conditions. In Rhode Island, I was the preferred nutritionists for over 100 referring physicians, psychiatric social workers, physical trainers, and other health professionals.
