About Hiral
I'm a Registered Dietitian (RD) with over 10 years of experience focused on the nutritional well-being of infants and children. My focus is on the vital first 1,000 days of a child's life, helping families lay a foundation for long-term health. I’m a certified breastfeeding specialist, working toward IBCLC certification to further support breastfeeding families. In addition to my specialization in pediatric nutrition, I'm certified in maternal and fertility nutrition as well as I'm a board-certified expert in nutrition support. I have specialized knowledge in areas like tube feeding and direct nutrient delivery into the bloodstream. I assist patients of all ages, both with long term complex medical needs and those who want to improve their general health. With a Master’s degree in Dietetics and Nutrition and my experience working with children with special needs, I bring both expertise and empathy to my practice. I am here to support you, lets began this journey together.
Approach to care
My passion is to translate nutrition science into meaningful information and empower you to make inform choices about your health. I based my recommendations on research and provide personalized care that is compassionate and encouraging. I will meet you where you are to support your individual journey.
