Individual nutrition consultations are available for all students at Campus Health.  Here at Campus Health we have three nutrition counselors available for appointments most days of the week. We work closely with other providers here at Campus Health to provide a team approach to health and wellness.

When visiting a Campus Health nutrition counselor, you will be provided with up to date and evidence-based nutrition information from registered dietitians. All our dietitians have many years of experience, treating different conditions such as digestive disorders, food allergies and intolerances, diabetes and other endocrine disorders, eating disorders and sports nutrition. We can also can provide support for meal planning and cooking on a budget. 

Each visit, the dietitian will review health goals most important to the student and provide a compassionate and individualized approach.  We aim to be encouraging and a source of accountability.  We also focus on any specific dietary needs and tailor plans to meet the lifestyles of our students.  Campus and college life is unique and we are very respectful of that.

Nutrition at Campus Health also offers programing to engage students on nutrition topics and well-being all throughout the year.  Our main programs include:
