Accepting new patients

No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

I am a Registered Dietitian (R.D.) specializing in the care of adults with prediabetes, type 1 and type 2 diabetes. I hold the philosophy that there is no one-size-fits-all method to healthy eating and diabetes management, and approach each patient interaction with this in mind. I strive to help patients meet their nutrition goals, while maintaining a healthy relationship with food and eating. In my free time, I enjoy meal planning, cooking, traveling, reading and spending time with friends and family.

Insurance

Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
