What to Expect

Our process begins with a comprehensive 90-minute initial consultation where we review your complete health history, current symptoms, dietary habits, and goals. We may recommend laboratory testing to assess nutrient levels, food sensitivities, or metabolic markers that could impact your progress. Based on this information, we develop a customized nutrition plan with specific recommendations for meals, snacks, and timing. Follow-up appointments are scheduled at 2-week intervals initially, then monthly as you progress. We provide detailed written plans, shopping lists, and recipe suggestions to support your success. Regular monitoring allows us to track your progress and make necessary adjustments to optimize your results.

Why Choose Nutrition Northwest

Our approach is grounded in scientific evidence and clinical experience, ensuring that your nutrition plan is both effective and safe. We take time to understand your individual needs and challenges, creating realistic plans that you can actually follow long-term. While we're working to enhance our client communication and service delivery, we remain committed to providing thorough, professional nutrition guidance. We believe in educating our clients about the 'why' behind our recommendations so you can make informed decisions about your health. Our goal is to help you with the knowledge and tools needed to maintain healthy eating habits independently over time.

Insurance & Pricing

Many insurance plans cover medical nutrition therapy when referred by a physician for specific conditions like diabetes or cardiovascular disease. We recommend checking with your insurance provider about coverage for nutrition counseling services. Our initial consultation is $275, with follow-up sessions ranging from $125-175 depending on duration and complexity. We offer package pricing for clients who commit to multiple sessions, which can provide significant savings. Payment plans are available for those who need them, and we accept most major credit cards and HSA/FSA accounts.

First-Time Patient Tips

Prior to your first visit, please complete our comprehensive intake forms and food diary for at least three days. Bring any recent laboratory results, medication lists, and supplement information to your appointment. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing as we may take body measurements. Come prepared with specific questions about your health concerns and nutrition goals. If you have dietary restrictions or food allergies, please provide detailed information about these. It's helpful to bring a family member or friend for support if desired, especially if they're involved in meal planning or preparation.

Common tests include comprehensive metabolic panels, vitamin D, B12, iron studies, and food sensitivity panels. We only recommend testing that's relevant to your specific health concerns and goals.

Can you help with eating disorders?

While we can provide nutrition education, we refer clients with eating disorders to specialized therapists. We're happy to work as part of a treatment team once appropriate mental health support is in place.
