Madelyn Wilcox

About Madelyn

I have been practicing as a clinical dietitian since 2015, primarily in outpatient cancer centers, and became credentialed as a Board-Certified Specialist in Oncology Nutrition (CSO) as of 2018. I am a member of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the Academy's Oncology Nutrition Dietetic Practice Group (ON-DPG) as well as the Academy's Dietitians in Integrative & Functional Medicine (DIFM). I provide evidence-based nutrition guidance to support patients before, during, and after cancer treatment as well as the challenges that can accompany a cancer diagnosis, including gut health issues, difficulties maintaining weight, disordered eating, and more. My goal is to be a trusted, accessible resource in the often overwhelming world of cancer and nutrition — helping individuals feel empowered, informed, and supported at every stage of their journey. I’m passionate about helping people feel their best and build confidence in making nutrition choices that work for them.

Approach to care

My approach is all about YOU. I believe in creating a safe, inclusive, and non-judgmental space where your goals, preferences, and challenges are front and center. Together, we’ll navigate the science of nutrition in a clear, practical, and achievable way. Expect a mix of motivational interviewing, creative problem-solving, and personalized strategies tailored to your health and wellness journey. “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." -Winston Churchill

Your first session with Madelyn

During our first session, we’ll take a deep dive into your health history, lifestyle, and goals. This is your time to share your story (no detail is too small). From there, we’ll work together to create a roadmap that’s as unique as you are. Whether it’s troubleshooting tricky habits, or exploring how food can enhance your energy and well-being, my goal is to have you leave feeling supported, inspired, and ready to take the first step.
