Cam’ryn Panks

About Cam’ryn

I’m a supportive and flexible nutrition professional who meets patients where they are. I believe in letting patients take the lead in their care while gently guiding them with education and encouragement. My approach focuses on improving each person’s relationship with food, celebrating non-scale victories, and helping them build confidence and understanding along the way. I specialize in diabetes care and have hands-on experience with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, CGMs, insulin pumps, and GLP-1 medications. As someone living with Type 1 diabetes myself, I truly get how challenging it can be—and how powerful small, sustainable changes can feel. I value creating a safe, non-judgmental space where patients feel heard and supported. In my current role, I stay current with the latest in nutrition research so I can provide the best care possible. I’m always learning and growing, and I’m passionate about helping people build healthier habits that last.

Approach to care

My approach to care as a dietitian is rooted in creating a welcoming, conversation-based environment that fosters open and honest communication. I believe in meeting clients where they are and providing encouragement to explore diverse and personalized ways to approach a new nutrition lifestyle. Together, we can develop sustainable habits that align with your goals and fit your unique journey.

Your first session with Cam’ryn

In our first session together, I take the time to get to know you and your unique lifestyle. I encourage you to share details about your eating habits, food preferences, allergens or intolerances, and any cultural or religious factors that influence your diet. We’ll also discuss your typical mealtimes, who you share them with, and any challenges you may face. This information helps me better understand your needs and allows us to work together to create a personalized plan that aligns with your goals and sets you up for success.
