Good health starts with good nutrition. Baylor Regional Medical Center at Plano can help you gain the knowledge you need to help improve your health through medical nutrition therapy. We provide personalized nutrition education by a registered dietitian.At your initial visit, the Registered Dietitian who is an expert in food and nutrition will discuss your medical diagnosis with you. You will work together to develop a healthy eating plan based on what you currently eat. You will discuss changes you can make to improve your health. We will work with you to include foods you like and teach you how to include all foods in a healthy lifestyle.
When you return for follow up, you and the dietitian will talk about the changes you have made. We discuss other ways you can change your eating habits to help you meet your goals and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
