What to expect...
During this 1-hour visit, we will work to uncover what is most important to you, what you hope to achieve, and what you are ready to begin working on. We will review your current and past challenges, evaluate your nutritional status and health risks, obtain your height, weight and other pertinent measurements, and begin to explore some realistic goals that fit your lifestyle. Follow-up sessions, which are typically 30 minutes in length, are used to review goals, evaluate strategies, measure progress and make revisions as needed.

How to prepare...
Prior to your appointment, you will need to complete the Health & Diet History Form. Print the form, complete it, and save to give to your nutrition therapist during your initial visit. It is recommended that you schedule an appointment when you can give your full attention to the session. In order to continue to offer the convenience of home visits, we must adhere to scheduled times. Thank you for being considerate and ready to start on time. We look forward to working with you!

Medicare & Insurance
Medicare - With a physician referral, Medicare covers Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) for diabetes and pre-dialysis kidney disease. When you call to schedule your appointment, please let us know that you are a Medicare beneficiary and remember to bring the physician referral form with you to your first visit.
Other Insurance - Some insurance companies cover services from a Registered Dietitian. If we are not a provider with your insurer, we will provide you with a receipt called a "superbill" so that you can submit it to your insurance company for reimbursement.
