What can a registered dietitian do for you? A registered dietitian (RD) provides the highest level of nutrition counseling. Winona Health’s dietitians offer medical nutrition therapy and personalized advice to patients of all ages with various nutritional needs. Whether you want to lose weight or simply eat healthier, a registered dietitian can help you meet your nutritional goals.
Winona Health’s dietitians are also available to help individuals accomplish healthy lifestyle goals by incorporating nutrition, exercise and behavior changes into their daily routine.
A provider’s referral is not necessary for an appointment, however, a referral normally helps with insurance coverage. We advise that you call your insurance provider to discuss coverage for medical nutrition therapy prior to scheduling an appointment.
