Nancy Lark, RD

I am an Integrative and Functional Medicine Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), with an MS in Exercise Science and a second MS in Medical Sciences with a concentration in Metabolic Nutrition and Medicine.  I have made helping others with preventive wellness and chronic disease relief my life’s passion.

From as early as I can remember, there were signs that my physiology was out of balance.  I had repeated ear infections as a child that persisted even with repeated bouts of antibiotics which damaged my microbiome and unbeknownst to me started a cascade of health issues that would be my future.  I began to get heavy, and at 10 years old I was put on medication for weight loss.  While I had some success, I gained as much emotional baggage in the process as I had lost weight.

As I got older, I developed a passion for preventive wellness, and I focused on educating and motivating patients about healthy lifestyle and chronic disease prevention and management, as I gained personally useful insights along the way. 

I spent my early professional career combining my dietetics and exercise science degree and working in corporate, hospital and private practice settings in weight management and preventive wellness.  In 2005 I started studying and working in functional medicine.

By 2008 I completed a Fellowship Program through A4M in Anti-aging, Metabolic and Functional Medicine, completed my MS in Medical Sciences in 2010 and opened my practice. 

Yet even though I walked the walk, over the years I began to develop a cascade of other health problems.  I was struggling with autoimmune, energy, fatigue and pain issues when I found functional medicine 20 years ago and started on the long road to decipher the puzzle of me.  And the journey continues today. 

My real-life health journey has given me a unique understanding of the physical and emotional components of the health challenges and struggles you are experiencing.  Additionally, my extensive credentials and years of experience opens up a wide window through which I look to help you reach your health goals! I am anxious to help you help yourself and look forward to working with you!
