More about Sarah

 What is one thing you would want patients to know about you?

I understand that there is so much more to weight management than following a “meal plan.” Accountability is everything, and I love playing that role. I want to be your cheerleader as you embark on your weight loss journey, cheering you along every step of the way. I’ll be there at every visit to provide nutrition guidance and feedback of course- but also to celebrate your wins, encourage you as you experience setbacks, and help you work through any mental/emotional challenges that present themselves as you work towards your weight loss goals.

How do you go about making your treatment plans for FORM patients?

In order to make the best treatment plan possible, a thorough assessment of past dieting history, individualized food preferences, lifestyle, work schedule, etc. are all essential. All these details are important in getting to know my patients and tailoring a specific plan to their needs. No cookie cutter plans here! Treatment plans are also flexible and subject to change. I love to get feedback from patients when something isn’t working for them, so we can work together to make adjustments.

Why do you love working with FORM patients?

I love working with FORM patients because they are highly motivated! Frequent dietitian visits and prompt feedback through the mobile app leads to greater accountability and increased likelihood of success. I also love getting to know patients on a personal level and celebrating with them as they notice all their non-scale victories!
