Olubisi Faoye, RD

With over two decades of experience as a registered dietitian and certified health education specialist, I am dedicated to transforming the way individuals approach nutrition and overall well-being. My expertise lies in medical nutrition therapy, with a focus on diabetes management, cardiovascular health, weight management, oncology nutrition, and chronic disease prevention. As a former clinical dietitian, I understand the complexities of nutrition in disease management and work closely with clients to create personalized, evidence-based strategies for achieving optimal health.

​

My approach is rooted in holistic, behavior-focused counseling, emphasizing that sustainable change comes from understanding and adapting nutrition to fit one’s unique lifestyle. I recognize that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to health, which is why I guide my clients at their own pace, ensuring that dietary recommendations are practical and achievable. I believe that food is a powerful form of medicine—one that can prevent and, in some cases, help manage chronic conditions. My ultimate goal is to empower individuals to develop a nutrition lifestyle that works best for them, fostering long-term, sustainable habits that improve both their health and quality of life.

​

My passion for dietetics stems from a deep personal commitment to improving health outcomes, particularly within underrepresented communities. As an African American professional in a field where representation is limited, I am driven by the desire to bridge the gap in healthcare disparities. I believe that proper nutrition education is a vital tool in preventing many of the chronic conditions that disproportionately affect my community. Through compassionate, realistic counseling, I help clients move away from restrictive mindsets and instead embrace a balanced, mindful approach to eating.

​

Beyond my professional work, I find joy in the kitchen—experimenting with cooking and baking, often creating delicious yet nourishing meals. I also enjoy reading self-help books on various topics, constantly seeking new knowledge to enhance both my personal and professional life. On a quieter day, you might find me crocheting, a hobby that allows me to slow down and appreciate the simple pleasures in life. My personal philosophy is to remain mindful of my own health choices, striving to stay free of chronic diseases while guiding others toward the same goal.
