Jacob Fralin, RDN, MD | Dietitian

About Jacob Fralin

I believe in holding empathy, fostering encouragement, and tactfully providing education. Acknowledgement can be a powerful first step to creating change, as our daily behaviors are often a reflection of our lived experiences. I share important concepts of health to empower clients with the knowledge needed to more internally guide their behavior change and increase collaboration. The age old saying "meet people where they are, but don't leave them there" is the basis of my approach. I'm passionate about helping people create a sustainable lifestyle and build a positive relationship with food! He's from Richmond, Virginia and like most of his family, he's a Hokie. He has worked in a variety of settings, facilitating gardening programs with WIC participants, creating thrifty meal plans for SNAP, providing nutrition support for critically-ill patients in a hospital, and helping to facilitate success with patients seeking guidance with IBS, weight loss, diabetes, gut health, plant-based nutrition, performance nutrition, hypertension, GERD, UC, diverticulitis, and CKD. Outside of being a dietitian, Jacob is on a weight lifting team, love's a good house project, camping, white water kayaking and rafting (ex-raft guide here!), gardening, and developing plant-based recipes. Capital Medical Partners has been a pillar of nutritional counseling and primary care in the Rockville, MD area for over 30 years serving Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C. We are dedicated to meeting our patients with compassion, evidence-based nutritional counseling tailored to your life by partnering with our patients one-on-one consistently with the same provider.
