About Doug

Hi, I’m Doug. I’m a Registered Dietitian based in Clearwater Florida, with 14 years of experience helping people navigate food and health. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Dietetics and have worked across clinical hospital settings, community health programs, and home care. I’m proud to hold certifications as a CDN, RDN, and LD, and I bring a practical, science‑based approach to everyday eating. When I’m not meeting with clients, you’ll likely find me on a tennis court, biking trails, or running with friends. I value connection and steady progress.

Approach to care

My care philosophy centers on collaboration, compassion, and lasting change. I ground my practice in current research and translate it into realistic plans that fit your life, not a one size fits all program. I’m warm and empathetic, meeting you where you are and celebrating every small win along the way. I practice with a Health at Every Size lens, focusing on behaviors, nourishment, and joy rather than weight‑centric goals. We’ll educate together, build sustainable routines, and support you with honest feedback and achievable steps.

Your first session with Doug

Our first appointment is all about you. We’ll review your medical history, lab work and biometrics, and establish short-term goals while laying the groundwork for a personalized meal plan. I want you to feel heard, not judged, and you don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet. We’ll talk about what has helped or challenged you in the past, and what feels doable in your routine. By the end, you’ll leave with a clear next step and a sense of partnership we’ll carry forward together.
