How It Works:

The athlete contacts the Sport RD to set-up the initial consultation. Once the appointment is made, an invoice will be sent to the athlete for payment. The athlete’s health history and goals will be reviewed in detail during the first session. The base training diet and recommendations are delivered to the athlete to keep and refer to and an opportunity to review the recommendations and ask questions is provided in a second session. If necessary, communication with the athlete’s medical provider may be included.

Follow-up Consultations $125/hr

Adjustments to your nutrition program may be necessary as your training volume changes or your life circumstances change. Periodic follow-up with the Sport RD is very helpful to many athletes. Phone consultations can be scheduled on an as-needed basis and are billed in 15 minute increments. Brief e-mail questions are billed as 15 minutes. Payment in advance is required.
