“I believe a whole-body approach, personalization and partnership are vital to ensure we best meet your specific nutrition and wellness needs for long term success!”

 

Hey there! I’m Louisa O’Grady, a registered dietitian nutritionist. I’m passionate about empowering people with chronic conditions to take steps to thrive!

 

I’ve been helping individuals with chronic illnesses to optimize their wellness through customized plans and education for more than 16 years.  I create an authentic, open environment so we can collaborate to create realistic goals that you will want to continue. 

 

My areas of focus in nutrition with chronic conditions include:

  • diabetes and pre-diabetes
  • diabetes technology
  • heart health
  • inflammation
  • digestive concerns

More About My Nutrition Background

My wellness journey began in my college years, when I was inspired by my first encounter with a nutritionist for my own chronic illness. And more recently, nutrition therapy has also been extremely beneficial in managing my POTS symptoms.

Throughout my time working in nutrition, I’ve enjoyed developing amazing personal connections with my patients and their loved ones.

My experience includes community nutrition, several long-term care and rehab centers and hospitals, including with Kidney and Liver Transplant Nutrition at Yale. The last 8 years, I had the privilege to support people living with diabetes and their caretakers at Medtronic.

Since partnering with a wide variety of people, I understand that there can be many different challenges in making changes. Therefore, we will take all factors into account, using a non-diet, personalized approach.
