About Pedro
Hi, I'm Pedro, a Registered Dietitian in New York City. I earned my MS in Nutrition Science from Hunter College and bring a year of hands-on experience across clinical, hospital, and community health settings. I’m credentialed as an RD and CDN, and I stay grounded in current evidence to guide practical, sustainable changes. I’m passionate about helping people build healthier relationships with food, one step at a time. Outside of work, I value curiosity, connection, and finding simple ways to make nourishing meals fit into everyday life.
Approach to care
As a dietitian, my care philosophy centers on partnership, curiosity, and real-world routines. I anchor my guidance in current science, yet I meet you where you are, honoring Health At Every Size principles and the belief that health shows up in many sizes. We’ll explore your relationship with food, emotions, and daily life, then translate findings into clear, actionable steps. My goal is to support sustainable change through education, skill-building, and steady accountability that fits your life.
Your first session with Pedro
Our first appointment is all about you and your goals. Think of it as a warm, collaborative conversation rather than a test. We’ll take time to understand your medical history, current eating patterns, daily routines, and what you hope to change. You don’t need to have everything figured out yet; I’ll guide you with questions and practical prompts. Together we’ll establish short-term goals and begin a thoughtful deep dive into your relationship with food, so you have a clear, doable plan for the coming weeks.
