About Sara

Welcome! I’m Sara, a dedicated Registered Dietitian with over 15 years of experience. For over 8 years, I’ve specialized in kidney disease. I'm a Board-Certified Specialist in Renal Nutrition, which means I am exceptionally qualified to support patients through their journey of kidney health, including diabetes, blood pressure, and weight management. I’ve dedicated my career to various healthcare settings, including outpatient dialysis clinics, community health clinics, telehealth, as well as the fitness and weight loss industry. My greatest pleasure is helping people to live their best lives!

Approach to care

My approach to care is individualized for you, evidence-based, and wholeheartedly collaborative together. I will work alongside you to best support you to make realistic goals, in order to sustain lifelong habits, and an overall lifestyle to maintain it. Compassion and dedication are what I will aways strive to provide to you, to best support your health and life goals. We will make sure that you are set up for success with accountability tools, and I’ll be here to provide guidance and encouragement every step of the way!
