Why Choose Summit Performance Nutrition

Our registered dietitians hold advanced certifications in sports nutrition and metabolic health, bringing expertise you won't find at typical weight loss centers. We focus on sustainable lifestyle changes rather than restrictive diets, with a 85% client success rate for maintaining weight loss after one year. Our approach respects Colorado Springs' outdoor culture - we'll never ask you to give up your hiking adventures or post-workout celebrations. We provide ongoing support through plateaus and setbacks, adjusting your plan as your body and life circumstances change. Most importantly, we address the root causes of weight gain, not just symptoms.

Insurance & Pricing

We accept most major insurance plans for nutrition counseling services, and many clients find their visits partially or fully covered under preventive care benefits. Initial consultations range from $150-200, with follow-up sessions typically $75-100. Package deals for multiple sessions offer significant savings. We also offer payment plans for clients paying out-of-pocket. HSA and FSA accounts can be used for all services. Corporate wellness programs are available at discounted group rates.

First-Time Patient Tips

Come to your first appointment having tracked your typical eating patterns for 3-5 days - this helps us understand your starting point without judgment. Bring any recent lab work, medication lists, and a list of foods you absolutely love and hate. Wear comfortable clothing for body composition testing. Most clients see initial results within 2-3 weeks, with significant changes by 6-8 weeks. Expect some trial and error as we fine-tune your plan. Success requires consistency, not perfection, so don't stress about occasional slip-ups. We're here to support you through every challenge and celebration.

Do I need a referral from my doctor?

No referral is required for nutrition counseling. However, if you have medical conditions, we may coordinate with your healthcare provider for optimal results.

We provide individualized medical nutrition therapy based on your unique physiology and health status. Our registered dietitians can address complex health conditions and create truly personalized plans.

What if I have dietary restrictions or food allergies?

We specialize in accommodating all dietary needs including food allergies, intolerances, and cultural preferences. Your plan will work around your restrictions, not despite them.

How quickly will I see results?

Most clients notice increased energy within the first week and see measurable changes in 2-3 weeks. Sustainable weight loss typically occurs at 1-2 pounds per week.
