Heidi Schneider

Hi I am Heidi Schneider.  I have over a decade of experience as a Renal Dietitian.  My goal is to give you the knowledge to achieve better kidney health with medical nutrition therapy.  I also have experience helping patients nutritionally to manage diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol management, weight loss, autoimmune disorders and post-transplant graft preservation.  My expertise is helping patients create an individualized diet to assist with any to all of these conditions.  Let’s work together to achieve your goals by optimizing your nutrition with sustainable changes.  I want to help give you a clear concise path to your goal, answer your questions and clear up any confusion while helping you feel confident in your food choices. 

I am a Renal Dietitian and Board Certified Specialist in Renal Nutrition.  I also have extensive knowledge in geriatric nutrition as well as managing diabetes, hypertension and other chronic diseases.  I am committed to helping my patients achieve lasting improvements in overall health without compromising kidney health.  I understand how important it is to truly listen and address your root cause.  We can achieve this through nutrition education and translating nutrition science into practical concepts.
