If you’re feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice about kidney-friendly diets, you’re not alone. Many of my patients come to me after spending hours on Google, only to feel more confused and ready to throw in the towel.

As a Board-Certified Specialist in Renal Nutrition, I’ve dedicated my career to helping people with kidney disease, and make intentional efforts to keep up to date on the most current recommendations. I understand the unique challenges you face and am here to provide clarity and support.

With this personalized guidance, you’ll follow the most up-to-date recommendations tailored to your body’s unique needs—no more guessing or struggling with overly restrictive diets.

As a new patient, it’s important to understand that adjusting to new habits takes time, and noticeable changes in your lab results may not happen right away (nor is it a guarantee). Change is a gradual process, so patience FIRST is key.

That said, many of my patients start to feel more energized within the first few weeks and gain greater confidence in their food choices early on.

Over time, most patients see measurable improvements in their lab results, including lower creatinine levels, improved GFR, better management of potassium and phosphorus, more stable blood pressure, and improved blood sugar control.

Although my specialty is kidney diseases, I also work with clients facing other health concerns. My areas of interest include diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and heart health, plant-forward nutrition, and general healthy eating. Currently, I only work with individuals aged 18 and older.

If your primary nutrition concern falls outside my expertise (such as pediatric nutrition), I’d be happy to help you find a provider who is better suited to your specific needs. And I know many!

For best results, most patients opt to meet with me at least 3 times: 1 Initial Appointment (75 minutes) and 2 Follow-Ups (30 minutes) over a period of 2-3 months (or however frequently they get blood work done).

I also have many patients that work with me long-term, for 6-12 months or longer.

At the end of our first appointment, we’ll discuss the type of support that best suits what you’re looking for.

Absolutely! Your kidney nutrition plan should be personalized to YOUR unique needs, including your specific lab results. Without these, we’re in a sense, flying blind.

After booking your appointment, you’ll receive an invitation to join my Patient Portal. Through the portal, you’ll complete new patient paperwork and have the option to upload your lab results or any other documents for me to review before our meeting.

Yes I absolutely do!

Insurance does often cover the whole session, however, sometimes patients may still be responsible for out of pocket costs such as co-pays, co-insurance, and late cancellation/no-show fees.
