April Vega

About April

I have worked in Long Term Care, Rehab, Dementia and Assisted Living areas for 20+ years. I currently specialize in Dialysis nutrition. I also teach Kidney Smart Classes for CKD stage 3,4 & 5 before starting dialysis. I worked a short period in a weight loss clinic with a family physician.

Approach to care

I believe in liberalized diets and only restricting what is necessary, I have done personalized care for years, I believe in quality of life. I feel that making small changes that you can live with will help make big differences due to likely sticking with the change. Knowledge is power, I enjoy educating, I think most of us are visual learners and prefers hands on approach, I use props and think outside the box. I believe in trying and doing what it takes to make a change. I want to work together to help you succeed and feel better.
