About Susan
I am Dr. Susan Raatz, a professional, evidence-based licensed, registered dietitian nutritionist. I have 20+ years experience as a clinical dietitian working with adult patients. I also have experience as a nutrition professor and researcher.
Approach to care
I provide confidential, individual nutrition advice to meet your personal situation and requirements, whether you are looking for weight management, help with how and what to eat for optimal health, or a specific diet plan to manage a medical condition. We will discuss your goals and together work to develop the most appropriate dietary approach to meet your needs and provide optimal nutrition.
Your first session with Susan
At our first session, we will discuss your goals in detail - both your short and long term goals. I will obtain detailed information on your height and weight, medical problems, lifestyle, physical activity level, and current eating habits in order to assess what your nutritional needs are. We will discuss general guidelines for working to reach your goals.
