I bet you’re tired of Googling “kidney diet” only to wind up more confused than ever 🙃

A new diagnosis is scary. And it’s way too easy to go down the rabbit hole of endless online searches, worrying about all the unknowns, and feeling confused about the conflicting things you’re reading online, in Facebook groups, or even hearing from the doctor’s office.

What you need to know is that there ARE steps you can take to improve your kidney health — so you can continue to live a fulfilling, enjoyable life full of all the things you love! You just need a personalized strategy on how to get there. That’s where I come in!

For patients paying out of pocket, I am committed to offering class-equitable cash pay rates. This allows you to receive a valuable service at a rate that takes your personal financial situation into consideration.

My equitable pricing model is based upon the premise that financial resources, including income, are not and should not be the only determining factor in whether someone can access nutrition care.
