What should I expect from my first visit?The first visit is about 60-90 minute long and it is focused on both the child and caregiver. Your registered dietitian will evaluate all your medical and nutrition information. This will help us come up with the best nutrition plan and goals for your child. Please note that you will receive your individualized/customized Nutrition Plan within the 72 hours (three business days) after your appointment.

Do you have an office?Yes, our office is in Weston, Florida. However, most of our patients prefer virtual consultations. These are done via Telehealth through Kalix, our HIPPA-compliant electronic medical record (EMR) for registered dietitians and healthcare professionals.
