Madison Bates, RD

Hi! My name is Madison, and I am a registered dietitian. 

​

I believe in taking both an integrative and evidence-based approach to nutrition—one that looks at diet and lifestyle and offers emotional support and empowerment. I work with my clients to provide personalized solutions that work for you.  Making a change, whether self-led or in the face of a new diagnosis, can be confusing and overwhelming at times. I want to come alongside you to offer support in achieving your goals and desired lifestyle changes. Let's get started today!

​

I completed both my Master’s in Clinical Nutrition & Dietetics and 1200+ hour clinically focused Dietetic Internship at Murray State University. Since then, I have been blessed with a vast array of clinical experience, including but not limited to counseling for weight loss, cardiovascular health, gut health, metabolic syndrome, and bariatic surgery.

​

 My passion for nutrition and dietetics was initially sparked by a heavy machinery accident that left my grandfather paralyzed with chronic wounds and ongoing medical complexities. I was able to visibly see the effect nutrition has on the body. Since then, my love for nutrition has only grown more vast with continued life experiences.  A few fun facts about me: I was born and raised in Kentucky but had a short stint in Georgia before moving back home to be with family. I love to cook and eat delicious food, spend time outdoors, travel, and seek new experiences with friends and family.
