I’m Natalie Orantes, a registered dietitian with several years of experience as an outpatient specialist. My expertise spans sports nutrition and weight management for both pediatric and adult patients. I have worked closely with patients managing food allergies, gastrointestinal issues, and those needing specific diet modifications, including plant-based and vegan dietary guidance. I’m passionate about helping my patients enhance their overall well-being by integrating physical activity, proper nutrition, and strategies for better sleep and stress management, all while carefully considering each individual’s medical conditions. My approach is deeply rooted in nutrition counseling, and I’m driven by a passion for educating my patients on the profound impact proper nutrition has on their health and well-being. I aim to empower them with the tools they need to lead healthier, happier lives. I believe that everyone deserves to feel their best through personalized care and ongoing support that addresses their unique needs. I place great importance on making my patients feel comfortable in their bodies, focusing on identifying and addressing the root causes of their health concerns at a pace that suits them. As a bilingual dietitian, I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. In my leisure time, I enjoy strength training, biking, and swimming. I also love baking, spending days at the beach with my husband and daughter, and taking my husky, Kylo, to the dog park.
