Morgan Fries

About Morgan

Originally from the Northern California area, I completed my undergraduate training at UC Davis, followed by my graduate degree and dietetic internship at Boston University and Massachusetts General Hospital. As an RDN, I was endowed and training in highly clinical environment on evidence-based practice. A majority of my training occurred at Mass Eye and Ear and MGH's Cancer Center, where I learned from exceptional dietitians about oncology nutrition and nutrition for cancer survivorship. I continue to work with oncology patients and acute care patients at hospitals in the Sacramento area. As an Endo-Warrior myself, I understand first-hand how frustrating and defeating it can be to live with auto-immune and chronic illnesses. I also am familiar with the unique challenges women face in their health journeys, particularly in conditions such as PCOS or Endometriosis, or weight management through menopause.

Approach to care

For all my patients, I believe strongly in a scientific based approach that also incorporate a whole-person approach. While I strive to implement evidence-based interventions for my clients and patients, I also strive to work them into their lives in a way that is enjoyable and sustainable. Food is more than just fuel, but enjoyment, comfort, culture, heritage and community.
