Looking for a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist?
The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the professional association for RDNs has a free Find a Nutrition Expert service. It allows you to retrieve a list of dietitians based on areas of expertise and location.
You can also check your health plan’s website—dietitians approved to accept payment from your health insurance plan are usually listed in the provider section.
