About Michael
Mike has been a Registered Dietitian for 14 years and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist for 4 years. He has a passion for supporting those looking to improve their health and wellness through nutrition. His specialty lies in the areas of weight loss and diabetes, but has extensive experience on improving cholesterol, blood pressure, kidney health cooking skills, exercise performance and many more areas. Mike started reading nutrition labels in his teenage years when he wanted to lose weight and continued his education on how nutrition affects our body to this day.
Approach to care
He views nutrition on an individualized basis, discussing an individual's goals and then using evidence-based information to guide what choices make the most sense. He's takes a relaxed and non-judgmental approach to nutrition discussions. He loves to relate to the challenges of making healthy choices and promotes an optimistic view of lifestyle changes. Repeat what brought us positive outcomes and learn from what we perceive as negative experiences. In those lessons, we can grow and improve our future self. He truly believes that small changes over time make a big impact and that is my approach to nutrition.
