What can I expect to cover during my first session with my dietitian?
Your first session is typically 50–60 minutes and is focused on getting to know you — not giving you a list of rules to follow right away.
Your dietitian will walk through your health history, current medications, eating patterns, lifestyle, and goals. They'll review the intake forms you completed in your patient portal and may ask follow-up questions to fill in any gaps. If you have recent lab work or notes from your doctor, it can be helpful to have those available, though it's not required.
By the end of the session, your dietitian will have a strong foundation to build your personalized care plan and will share an initial set of goals or recommendations for you to start with before your next appointment. You'll also have a chance to ask any questions you have and align on a schedule for follow-up sessions.
