The University Health Center registered dietitian can help you develop healthy eating habits that provide the energy and strength you need. Get an individualized nutrition assessment to improve your evidence-based nutrition knowledge, and work with the dietitian to create a plan that meets your unique goals.
Nutrition counseling can help with a variety of concerns, including:
- Weight management (gain, loss or maintenance)
- Overall well-being improvement
- Food intolerances and sensitivities
- Mood and mental health
- Digestive health
- Chronic disease management and more
The registered dietitian also specializes in diabetes and can help students navigate their diagnosis, whether they have pre-diabetes, Type 1, Type 2 or gestational diabetes.
Appointments
Nutrition counseling is available by appointment only. Call 402-472-5000 to schedule an appointment. All visits are held via telehealth.
A no-show is when a patient misses their scheduled appointment without informing the clinic of their cancellation. Only one no-show is allowed for specialty care services (i.e. orthopaedics, optometry, and nutrition services). If a patient fails to show up to a scheduled appointment more than once, they will no longer be able to schedule with any specialists at the University Health Center.
Cost
Students who pay student fees can receive their first nutrition counseling visit for no additional cost. Student fees do not cover follow-up appointments, and there are charges for each visit. To determine how much your visit will cost, we recommend contacting your health insurance provider for coverage information. Patients are responsible for any charges not covered by insurance.
Eligibility
- University of Nebraska students from all campuses
- UNL faculty and staff
