About Michelle

Hi! I'm Michelle Rossi, Registered Dietitian. I have been in the field for almost 9 years and have dedicated my career to working in the clinical world. I have been in long-term care facilities for nearly 6 years of my career, working with elderly and chronically ill patients, focusing on individual nutrition goals and interventions to compliment their stages in life. I currently have been in the acute-care setting for over 3 years now and have grown in my knowledge of a variety of disease states and each stage of them. My initial intention of becoming a dietitian was to focus on sports nutrition and medical wellness; with that being said, I am now looking to broaden my scope towards wellness and counseling by using the tools and knowledge I have earned over the past 9 years. Let me help you!

Approach to care

My philosophy for patients is ADDING more food and nutrients, not subtracting! I steer clear of telling patients to completely eliminate something in their diet; instead, I always try to find ways for them to modify something they currently enjoy or just adding something to their meals to make it more satiating and nutrient-dense. I am not about fad diets because this will not yield long-term success.

Your first session with Michelle

First, I would like to get to know YOU! What brought you here today...what knowledge do you already have about nutrition that we can build upon...what's your medical history...what's your lifestyle like...what are your hobbies...do you have a support system...what has been successful for you in the past...what has been a barrier for you to make the changes you desire...etc. The only way I will be able to understand how to guide you is if I know and understand you. Once I know who you are, we will be able
