More about Julie Shimko, RD, MA

Hi, I am Julie Shimko, an Oncology Registered Dietitian specializing in breast cancer, with over a decade of experience in clinical nutrition. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Nutrition Science from San Francisco State University and a Master's degree in English Literature from DePaul University, Chicago. In addition to running my own private practice, I have been with Stanford for nearly three years as an Outpatient Oncology Registered Dietitian, focusing on breast cancer nutrition and survivorship. I began my career at The Queen of the Valley Medical Center in Napa, where I developed and implemented the nutrition program as the sole Registered Dietitian for the oncology department. I have actively contributed to several quality improvement projects aimed at optimizing nutrition interventions throughout the patient care pathway. As a consultant nutrition writer and researcher, I have worked with hundreds of women facing breast cancer, supporting them through the unique nutrition challenges at each stage of their treatment journey. I work with women before, during, and after treatment-including chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, and hormonal therapy-recognizing that each phase requires tailored nutrition guidance. I understand that a diagnosis often brings a strong desire to take control and reduce the risk of recurrence, which includes making changes to diet and physical activity. Many patients complete therapy and are left wondering, ?Now what?? You may feel disconnected from your body, struggling with weight, nutrition labs like cholesterol and glucose, and after searching the internet, find conflicting answers to your nutrition questions. My goal is to provide clear, personalized support to help you regain control and confidence in your health.
