Dorcas Lwanga, RD

Hello! I’m a Registered Dietitian with a Master of Science in Human Nutrition and over 20 years of experience helping individuals, families and communities achieve their best health through evidence‑based nutrition. I have clinical, community and international nutrition experience. Here is what you can expect when we work together—and a little about who I am, both in and out of the clinic.

When we meet, my goal is to create a supportive, judgment‑free space where your questions and goals guide the conversation. At the end of our session, you leave with:

 A clear understanding of how your current eating patterns affect your health

 Practical, personalized strategies you can implement right away

 Tools to help you track your progress and manage challenges

 Confidence to make sustainable changes that fit your lifestyle

Over the years I have specialized in:

 Nutrition and diabetes management

 Cardiovascular health, including hypertension and cholesterol management

 Gastrointestinal disorders, from irritable bowel disease to inflammatory bowel disease, GI surgeries and more.

 Oncology nutrition, supporting clients through cancer treatment, recovery, and survivorship

 Weight management

 High‑risk pregnancy including gestational diabetes

 Nutrition and HIV/AIDS

 Maternal‑child nutrition

 Pediatrics

 Nutrition and Kidney disease management

 Enteral nutrition

I’m passionate about culture and connection, —whether that is through travel, music, food, or film. I love dancing and I am a total foodie who delights in exploring dishes from around the world. On quiet evenings, you will often find me curled up watching my all‑time favorite musical, The Sound of Music, singing along to every song. I will not pass by an opportunity to sing with fellow sound of music lovers!

Above all, I’m driven by a deep love of helping people live healthier, more fulfilling lives. Seeing a client’s confidence grow as they master new habits, feeling good and better about their health, that’s what fuels me every day.

I look forward to partnering with you on your journey to a healthier you!
