In choosing your personal dietitian, it is essential to keep several things in mind:
1) Find someone who is a specialist in your area of concern. Just like you wouldn't see a cardiologist if you were diabetic, you don't want to choose a dietitian who does not have a comprehensive understanding of your medical issues.
2) Find someone you can feel comfortable with, who will not judge you based on your food choices or level of progress with behavior change.
3) Find someone who you believe lives up to and practices the nutritional principles being taught to you. There is nothing worse than a dietitian who will not take her own advise!

4) Patrizia values your need to be in charge of what, when, and how much you eat. She has been known for keeping her patients in the driver's seat at all times during treatment. Rather than forcing her opinions on you, she will empower you to make a difference in your choices through her education and healthy example.
