What is an RD?

Our team is made up of Registered Dietitians (RDs). To be an RD, you must have a master’s degree-level education, including very specific coursework in nutrition. This is followed by supervised practice in the clinical setting, sort of like a residency program. We are the one and only nationally recognized nutrition allied-health professional, and the only type of ‘nutritionist’ that can work in major hospital systems. We are trained on clinical, evidence-based strategies for the lifestyle management of complex conditions.
