About Yajaira
I have over twelve years of experience in clinical nutrition, more specifically in weight management, enteral feeds, sports nutrition, diabetes management, transplant and, cystic fibrosis. Together we can work on desired changes and maintenance strategies that will lead to lifelong health.
Approach to care
My practice includes minimizing conflict between your goals and daily processes. We aim to start at your individual baseline and work on daily/weekly gains to get you across the finish line. You, the patient, will determine the speed at which we make changes.
Your first session with Yajaira
You can expect an in-depth assessment of your baseline, discussion of short and long term goals, and change expectations. You will be provided with start up information which will be built upon on follow up visits. You will have time to ask questions as you drive the agenda forward.
