Nutrition Services

Nutrition is one of the most powerful tools for improving health and managing chronic diseases. Henry Ford Health’s registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) provide personalized, evidence-based care tailored to your medical needs, lifestyle, and goals. We work with you to develop practical, sustainable strategies that fit your life and help you achieve lasting results.

Our experts provide outpatient nutrition services for:

  • Malnutrition/ Unintentional weight loss
  • Heart Disease
  • Prediabetes
  • Pre and post-surgery
  • Supplement or enteral nutrition guidance
  • Wound healing
  • Digestive problems (Crohn’s, IBS, ulcerative colitis)
  • Women’s Health (Pre-Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postnatal, Perimenopause and Menopause)
  • Sports nutrition
  • Food allergies
  • Anemia
  • Healthy Eating to Support Overall Health and Disease Prevention
  • And more!

You will need a referral from your physician. Check with your insurance provider to see if nutrition services, such as “medical nutrition therapy” or “dietary surveillance and counseling,” are covered by your plan. If not, or you prefer to pay out of pocket, we offer a retail package.
