About Dr. Ellen Muhammad

Hi, I'm Dr. Ellen, an advanced practice, doctorate-trained registered dietitian and board-certified diabetes specialist with over 13 years of experience helping people achieve lasting results in weight management, diabetes, PCOS, and healthy eating. Whether you're just starting your health journey, feeling stuck despite your best efforts, or struggling with stubborn weight, unpredictable blood sugar, or PCOS symptoms—I'm here to partner with you in creating sustainable change that fits your real life. What makes my approach different? I don't believe in restrictive diets or cookie-cutter meal plans. Instead, I take time to understand your unique lifestyle, food preferences, and goals. Together, we'll create a personalized nutrition plan that works for your body and your life while helping you build a healthier relationship with food. I combine science with practical education and empowerment, so you leave each session with tools you can use immediately to start feeling better. In our first session, we'll discuss your health history, current concerns, and what success looks like to you. I'll give you actionable strategies so you can start making progress right away. Follow-up appointments keep you accountable, celebrate what's working, and problem-solve obstacles. You'll likely notice improvements in your energy, blood sugar control, confidence around food, and overall sense of wellbeing. Success looks different for everyone—maybe it's understanding how food affects your body, having energy to keep up with your family, or simply feeling at peace with eating. Whether you want to learn how to eat healthier, manage blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol, or fit back into your favorite pair of jeans, I will harness my expertise to help you become a healthier, happier you! When not working with clients on their wellness goals, I enjoy spending time with my sorority sisters, traveling, and feeding fish in my backyard Koi pond.
