Why Choose Sutter?

If you have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, nutrition therapy can help you better manage your blood sugar, feel healthier and have more energy. Our registered dietitians (RDs), many of whom are certified diabetes educators (CDEs), provide personalized nutrition therapy to help you manage diabetes.

During your sessions, your RD will assess your eating habits, medications and health to create a customized eating plan. You’ll learn how to adjust food choices and family meals to meet your body’s needs. As you work to make changes, you can also count on your dietitian for reliable support and regular check-ins. They’ll be your go-to resource and biggest advocate, ensuring you’re on track and helping you navigate any challenges.
