Kelly King

About Kelly

Hi! My name is Kelly King. I am a registered dietitian and a certified diabetes care and education specialist. I was thrilled to accept my first job offer as a registered dietitian in 2010. I worked as an inpatient clinical registered dietitian from 2010 until 2017. In 2016, I obtained my certification as a certified diabetes care and education specialist and moved from inpatient to the outpatient world to provide nutrition education. Being able to be a part of someone’s health journey is a true honor. I would love the opportunity to partner with you on your journey to improved health and wellbeing.

Approach to care

I am passionate about helping others and meeting them where they are to help incorporate lifestyle changes easily into their day to day. I love being able to assist with goal setting, celebrating when goals are achieved or providing support, hope and guidance when they are not. I love hearing what my clients’ hopes or expectations are to ensure that their needs are met during our time together. I believe in the importance of being collaborative and providing individualized care that is also evidence-based to all my clients to help them reach their goals.

Your first session with Kelly

During our first session, I would love to have the opportunity to get to know you and listen to your reason for scheduling with us to ensure that I provide you with individualized care and support during our time together. I will provide education and resources to get you started on your health journey. I will collaborate with you in setting SMART goals to assist with taking small steps towards your overall health goals.
