My name is Emmy and I have had the pleasure of working as a Registered Dietitian for over 5 years. I currently specialize in bariatric surgery and weight loss nutrition. I counsel patients through group classes, individual sessions, and support groups. One of my favorite activities is community outreach because I enjoy meeting people and encouraging others to start on a path that can change their lives for the better. Before specializing in bariatrics, I built a strong foundation working in a hospital where I treated various medical conditions using different nutritional strategies. This role has allowed me to see the big picture when it comes to the importance of nutrition in relation to good health. I have experience working with people across the lifespan, but my passion is counseling and helping adults navigate their health journeys. There is no one size fits all approach to health and weight management, but creating sustainable lifestyle change is at the heart of success. Whether you have undergone bariatric surgery or are taking the nonsurgical route with the help of medications or lifestyle change alone, I pride myself on providing compassionate, evidence-based care, free of judgment. My hope is for us to work as a team to help reach your unique goals. I look forward to getting to know you and partnering together throughout your health journey! As for me personally, I enjoy reading, relaxing at the beach, and spending time with my family, including my two dogs!
