About Natalia

She also has experience working with patients managing conditions such as hypercholesterolemia, type 2 diabetes, PCOS, hypertension and more.

Approach to care
Natalia believes that meeting patients where they are is crucial in providing quality care. She strongly believes that we do not all have the same 24 hours in a day, therefore, every patient has a unique set of circumstances, needs, and preferences which are essential to consider when developing a care plan towards health goals. By taking the time to listen and understand patients' individual situations, she can tailor her holistic approach to provide care that is effective, compassionate, and right for you.
Your first session with Natalia
For your first session, come prepared to discuss you! Topics like your medical history, most recent labs, relationship with food, diet history, food preferences, and health goals will be covered. During the initial session, we will also explore both patient and provider expectations for our working relationship. This visit will result in action steps that will be the starting point of your journey. Follow-up sessions are really where all the work is done. Consistency, not perfection!
