Can't find the right match?
Everyone's journey is different, so your dietitian works with you 1 on 1 to provide a hyper-personalized plan
Have you tried (seemingly) every diet out there with limited success? Trying to beat prediabetes holistically? Worn out from life and know your diet could be better but don’t know where to start? Your dietitian will assess all this and more to craft a completely personalized approach for your treatment based on your goals, lifestyle, health history, motivators, and more. Fay dietitians use clinically proven methods to drive results, including goal setting, intuitive eating, nutrition education, lifestyle counseling, lab testing, and meal planning.
The world of nutrition is overwhelming. There’s so much information out there – but how can you know what’s right for you? The reality is: nutrition is complex and requires an expert’s guidance. Registered dietitians are the only nutrition professionals qualified to offer medical nutrition therapy (MNT). That means RDNs have a deep understanding of the chemical properties of food and how that interacts with one’s body on a cellular level to impact overall health. Instead of stressing out over the latest food trend, put your care in the hands of a dietitian and find ease in knowing you’re getting personalized, research-backed nutrition advice.
Ready to break free from the harsh voice in your head criticizing your every food choice? Whether weight loss is part of your goals or not, your dietitian can help calm the noise with a research-backed approach that addresses both the practical challenges of daily meals and the psychological factors of disordered eating. You can learn ways to manage your health and weight that go beyond the confines of a traditional “diet” by prioritizing balance and finding the right nutrition approach for you personally.
Accountability is a crucial factor in making any lifestyle change. Having a set weekly meeting with your dietitian – and knowing you have an expert on your side – can make a world of difference when it comes to sticking to your nutrition goals. You’ll have regular check-ins where you go over your progress and any challenges you’re facing, and together, you and your dietitian will make adjustments to account for your evolving needs. RDNs know as well as anyone that a successful plan is one that fits into your life, not works against it.
You have to make a lot of decisions every day, including what to eat. Meal planning removes the headache of that decision, and when it’s done in partnership with your dietitian, it’s that much easier to meet your goals without exhausting yourself in the process. All the hard work of figuring out how much to eat and when is already done for you – you just need to stick to the plan. Your RDN can provide meal ideas and recipes too, which can help boost adherence and make following your plan simpler and more enjoyable.
No matter why you’re getting a dietitian’s expertise, intuitive eating principles can help almost anyone cultivate a healthier relationship with food. Using behavioral psychology, intuitive eating emphasizes getting in touch with your body to better understand hunger and fullness cues, identify emotional eating, and remove any shame or guilt that might come up. With this psychological approach, your dietitian can help you calm the “food noise” in your mind to cultivate a sense of empowerment and joy in eating once again.
Meeting your nutrition goals is about more than just the food you eat. Your daily routine – activity level, sleep schedule, stress levels, work life, and environment – has a huge impact on your overall health. Your dietitian will create your personalized plan based on these factors and more. Taking this approach makes your plan more realistic, which makes achieving your goals easier. It also allows your RD to identify any potential challenges and craft a plan to overcome them.
Food can play an important role in managing chronic health conditions, but you need an expert to guide you. Fay has dietitians specializing in diabetes, IBS, PCOS, thyroid health, obesity, and more. These providers can collaborate directly with your broader care team to ensure your nutrition plan is aligned with your ongoing treatments. Your RDN can do more than just make a meal plan based on your goals and condition – they can also educate you on the key factors of eating for that condition, empowering you to continue the care for yourself.
Health is foundational to wellbeing. Fay dietitians are qualified to support weight loss, hormonal imbalances, chronic disease, and much more. Collaborating with an RDN greatly increases your chances of success in meeting your goals. Whatever your nutrition goals are, you can find a board-certified registered dietitian nutritionist specializing in that area with Fay.
Top credentials
Registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) are the most qualified of any nutrition provider, having the most stringent requirements for both education and clinical experience. When you work with a dietitian, you know you’re getting top-quality care. All of Fay’s RDs are board-certified and heavily vetted for expertise.
Search by expertise
Whether you’re looking to treat high cholesterol, lose weight, recover from an eating disorder, or something else, you can find a Fay dietitian specializing in your area of concern. Simply filter by specialty and look for someone covered by your health insurance. This way, you know you’re getting the best care possible.
Affordable for all
Nutrition care is too often inaccessible due to cost. Fay makes it easy by using your health insurance benefits to get this care covered by you. With Fay, you could pay as little as $0 per session.
Kind, empathetic providers
Expertise matters, but so does bedside manner. Fay’s dietitians are selected for their credentials and proven track record of excellent care. You can read through a provider’s reviews before booking a consultation to ensure they’re right fit for you. It’s vital to feel comfortable with your RD so you feel confident putting your care in their hands.
Benefits of working with a Fay Nutritionist in San Francisco
Completely custom approach
When you work with a Fay dietitian, you start off with a comprehensive intake covering your current diet, food preferences, any allergies or sensitivities, top health concerns, health history, and more. This sets your RD up to create a completely custom meal plan that fits your lifestyle and helps you meet your goals.
Improved relationship to food
Nutrition is confusing. Should you try the keto diet to lose weight? Should you limit carbs if you have PCOS? How should you eat to prevent diabetes? Working with an RD helps clear away all confusion and fosters a better relationship with food, viewing it as a tool for health and a means of true nourishment.
Virtual or in-person sessions
If you’re searching for a dietitian in San Francisco, you can rest easy knowing you have the option of meeting with a Fay RD either in-person or virtually. This makes getting the care you need even easier and opens you to providers across the country, ensuring you can find someone with expertise in your area of concern who can get started right away.
Realistic meal plans
Has fearing a dietitian will prescribe an overly restrictive meal plan stopped you from working with one? Fay’s RDs take an additive approach rather than a restrictive one, focusing on what foods you can enjoy while still meeting your health goals rather than demonizing any food group. This realistic approach makes it much easier to stick to your plan and achieve your goals.
San Francisco’s delectable (but expensive) food scene
Chronic health in San Francisco
The Bay Area has a lower-than-average prevalence of heart disease, but over 40% of adults in San Francisco are overweight or obese, which disproportionately affects people of color. Over the past 30 years, the prevalence of diabetes among Black residents has quadrupled. San Francisco also has very poor air quality, which correlates with a number of chronic health issues.
Plates from every corner of the globe
San Francisco boasts some of the best food in the world influenced by cuisines across the globe thanks to its vibrant immigrant population. It’s known for its sourdough bread, Mexican food, regional wine, and locally grown food. Dining out anywhere from Chinatown to the Mission District is sure to be an outstanding meal.
Delicious but costly
San Francisco consistently ranks as one of the most expensive cities worldwide and affording healthy food there can be a challenge. This leads to significant disparities in key health metrics across different demographics, with poor residents of color suffering the most. Fay helps make nutrition care accessible by utilizing health insurance benefits to get your care covered.
