Denee Butler, RD

Hi, I'm Denee! I've always been obsessed with nutrition. I witnessed malnutrition firsthand within my family, and from a young age, I knew I wanted to pursue nutrition as a career. I have done just about everything from working behind the counter in food service, prepping large meal plans for a daycare, and assisting mothers and babies in the WIC program, but every step of the way, I was aiming to be an RD. I am proud to be a certified lactation and infant feeding counselor. Helping parents to navigate feeding their children is one of the great joys in my professional life. I also work as a dietitian for the South Carolina Department of Public Health for Children and Youth with Special Healthcare Needs. I have witnessed the absence of proper and available nutrition guidance, and I want to be that fountain of information to pass on knowledge and make it accessible to anyone and everyone! I expect nothing more than I can give myself; the ability to have an open and honest conversation in a safe space. I want to be able to discuss anything and everything like we are sharing a cup of coffee. I want these conversations to be patient-centered. I want my patients to be experts in their own journey; I simply view myself as a guide in an ever-evolving nutrition path, and hope you'll see me as a friend and a fellow navigator of your journey!
