Mary Claire Legg

About Mary Claire

I am a goal-driven Registered Dietitian with 9 years of experience in hospital, outpatient, and private practice settings. Dedicated to improving patient lives through evidence-based nutritional practices, I am talented at counseling patients, developing treatment plans and monitoring progress. My approach is friendly and personable when working one-on-one with patients.

Approach to care

I have a passion for helping patients feel their best. My belief is that nutrition and wellness is so much more than food; it's cultural, nostalgic, nourishing, and even medicinal. My approach blends science with warmth to meet you where you are. I stay grounded in current evidence and translate it into practical steps you can actually use. We'll work together in a nonjudgmental, collaborative way, focusing on sustainable choices rather than quick fixes.

Your first session with Mary Claire

Our first appointment is a chance to slow down and dial in what matters to you. We'll review your medical history, current routines, and goals in a supportive, nonjudgmental space. You don't need to have every detail ready; we'll figure it out together. We'll establish short-term goals to guide the next steps and start building a practical plan you can begin immediately following the session. I'll listen, ask questions, and bring science-based context to help you feel confident moving forward. I can't wait to get started!
