Michel Bernotas

About Michel

I have been a Registered Dietitian since 2007 working in the clinical setting. I have extensive experience in nutrition education as well as nutrition prescription and modification. I have worked with many different patients with varying disease states from diabetes to kidney disease, liver disease, GI issues, oncology, and several other areas.

Approach to care

I am a realist. I like to help my patients figure out how to make nutrition fit into their lives and also bring healing. I love the idea of moderation. I feel that food and eating can and should be pleasurable as well as nutritious and healing. I realize life and it's challenges can make healthy eating more difficult at times. I like to strive for progress and implementable and sustainable lifestyle changes that bring balance vs. strict, extreme and unrealistic overhauls, which are often overwhelming and bound to fail.

Your first session with Michel

We will get to know each other. Ask questions-- you can fill me in on your nutrition and medical history and then discuss ways that you think I can help you and vice versa. I have a very laid back approach and hopefully can quickly set you at ease. Would love to help you navigate nutrition and your health.
