About Gina

Gina has 24 years' experience in medical dietetics, including inpatient hospital and outpatient clinic settings. She became a registered dietitian (RD) because she wanted to learn proactive, natural ways to avoid chronic disease through diet, physical activity, and minimal medications.

Gina is also a Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist (CDCES) and helps individuals with all types of diabetes (type 1, type 2, gestational), as well as prediabetes and PCOS.

Approach to care

Gina believes that clients are "subcontracting" her expertise to help them achieve their best health. She will work with you to define your goals and make adjustments in your diet, physical activity, and lifestyle that will result in improved overall health and reduced risk of chronic disease complications. Gina believes in minimizing medications when possible and being proactive with lifestyle choices as able.
