Ritesh Bhatia, RD

Hi, I’m Ritesh Bhatia, a Registered Dietitian (RD) with a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree and over a decade of experience in healthcare and nutrition. My passion lies in helping individuals navigate complex health challenges, including cancer, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, gastrointestinal disorders, weight management, and pre- and post-bariatric surgery care. With a deep understanding of medical nutrition therapy, I create evidence-based, personalized strategies that empower you to take control of your health in a sustainable way.

​

I believe nutrition should be both practical and empowering. My approach is centered around collaboration, ensuring that every recommendation fits your lifestyle and health goals. Whether you're managing a chronic illness, working towards weight loss or gain, or adjusting to a medical nutrition regimen like tube feeding, I focus on realistic, achievable changes that lead to long-term success. My goal is to provide you with the knowledge and tools needed to make confident decisions about your health while offering the support and encouragement you need along the way.

​

In our first session, I take the time to truly understand your health history, eating habits, lifestyle, and specific concerns. I’ll work with you to develop a personalized nutrition plan that aligns with your needs—whether it's improving gut health, managing GERD symptoms, or optimizing your diet for a medical condition. My aim is for you to leave our session feeling empowered with a clear, actionable plan that moves you closer to your health goals.

​

Beyond my clinical work, I’m passionate about staying up-to-date with the latest research in nutrition and healthcare. I regularly engage in professional development, attend webinars, and participate in journal club discussions to ensure that I bring the most effective, evidence-based solutions to my clients. My background in both medicine and nutrition allows me to bridge the gap between medical treatment and dietary interventions, ensuring a well-rounded approach to patient care.

​

No matter where you are in your health journey, I’m here to support and guide you with a science-backed, compassionate approach. Let’s work together to create a plan that helps you feel your best!
