About Precious

Hi! My name is Precious Epeagba. I am a registered dietitian with both my undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). As a Nigerian-American, who grew up in Alabama in a big family, I’ve always understood the deep connection between food, culture, and community. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of settings—from supporting individuals in residential eating disorder treatment to helping those living with kidney disease navigate their nutrition needs. My approach is compassionate, individualized, and rooted in evidence-based care, with the goal of empowering clients to make lasting, meaningful changes to their health and well-being.

Approach to care

My approach to care is compassionate and honest, grounded in evidence-based practices. I believe that every person’s health journey is unique, so I take the time to cater to each patient’s needs, goals, and values when creating their treatment plan. I see my role as a guide and partner—offering expert nutrition knowledge while allowing the patient to lead the way.

Your first session with Precious

In your first session, definitely expect to do more of the talking. Haha! In our first session, my priority is getting to know you—your health history, lifestyle, and most importantly, your goals. You’ll have the opportunity to share what matters most to you, and together we’ll talk through your priorities, challenges, and hopes for your health.
