• Nutrition One-On-One Counseling: This is available to all responders who are up-to-date with their yearly monitoring visits. The counseling appointments are available in-person at the Commack office, or via telehealth (telephone or video). The visit consists of reviewing your health goals, body composition, annual monitoring visit lab values, nutritional intake, and exercise plan. The registered dietitian will work with you individually to create a nutrition-focused plan and list of goals. You will receive written and verbal education including meal and snack ideas, meal timing information, and other helpful guides.
