About Lidia
As a Registered Dietitian I make sure my patients receive quality nutrition patient care. My academic journey at California State University, Northridge and the completion of a Dietetic Internship at Cedars Sinai Medical Center have equipped me with a robust foundation in evidence-based dietary practices. With expertise in nutrition assessment and nutrition counseling, I am committed to delivering exceptional nutrition services. Fluent in Spanish, I bridge communication gaps, ensuring diverse patient populations receive culturally sensitive care. My goal is to continuously expand my competencies, contributing to the field of dietetics with dedication and compassion to make a change in the lives of others.
Approach to care
I truly believe in patient-centered care. Nutrition should be tailored to individual needs as individuals may have or want to accomplish different nutrition goals in various ways. The way to go is understanding what my patient truly wants. My goal is to use evidence-based knowledge and research to adequately meet my patients goals, needs, and wants through a patient centered approach.
Your first session with Lidia
I expect to make a meaningful connection with my patient on the first session. I want my patient to be comfortable with me and to open up to tell me his/her nutrition wants and needs. I would work hard to help my patient achieve his/her goals in a realistic way. I want to be able to positively change the lives of others through food and nutrition.
