Douglas Fischer, RD

Dietitian
MI
Doug's interest in nutrition bloomed while he was struggling to perform in his early years of university. He realized that his routines and health behaviors were not supporting his academic goals nor the lifestyle he sought, and he yearned for the tools to change his path. He began learning about nutrition and started fueling his body with a significantly improved dietary pattern, which improved his energy, focus, and motivation to achieve his goals. He shifted his course of study to dietetics and never looked back. Doug earned his Bachelor's in Dietetics and Nutrition from the University of Rhode Island and completed an internship in Dietetics at Oregon Health & Science University. Since then, he has developed an expansive knowledge of nutrition and how to apply the principles of nutrition and dietetics for the purpose of achieving health and lifestyle goals. He has helped many people achieve their own goals, ranging from weight loss or gain to reduction in IBS symptoms. An avid learner, Doug's approach to nutrition care involves staying up-to-date on the latest evidence-based interventions and aligning with patients on a plan that will work best for them.
