A registered dietitian is not the same thing as a wellness influencer with a meal plan to sell. The RD (or RDN) credential requires a supervised clinical internship, a national board exam, and ongoing continuing education, and in North Carolina these practitioners are also state-licensed, which is what the LDN after their name signals. That training is what allows a dietitian to provide medical nutrition therapy for real conditions, from diabetes and kidney disease to eating disorders, rather than generic advice to simply eat more vegetables.
Greensboro has a small but genuinely local roster of dietitians who run their own private practices, which means you can often see the same person month after month instead of being handed off inside a giant system. Some take insurance; others are cash-pay and give you a superbill to submit yourself; many now offer virtual visits alongside in-person appointments. The practices below are all based right here in Guilford County, and each one leans in a slightly different direction, so it helps to know what a given office tends to focus on before you call.
Simple Nutrition: Non-Diet Counseling on Battleground Avenue
Founded by Megan Hadley, MS, RDN, LDN, Simple Nutrition works out of 1400 Battleground Avenue, Suite 150B, and currently practices as a team of three. Their approach is explicitly Intuitive Eating and Health At Every Size informed, meaning they help clients repair their relationship with food without prescribing weight-loss diets. The group sees children, teens, and adults for eating disorders, disordered and emotional eating, and Type 2 diabetes. Donetta Floyd holds a diabetes-care credential (CDCES), and Caroline Wolfgang is the practice’s early childhood feeding expert, which is the name to ask for when the referral is about a young child rather than an adult. The office now takes Blue Cross Blue Shield and Aetna, which it did not previously.
Christie Hunter, RD: A Six-Dietitian Group Practice Off Friendly
At 5415 West Friendly Avenue, Suite F, Christie Hunter, RD, LLC runs one of the larger independent dietitian teams in the city, with six registered dietitians on staff. That bench lets a single practice cover a wide range of needs, from sports nutrition and weight management to diabetes, high cholesterol, food allergies, kidney disease, and vegetarian eating. They offer food-sensitivity testing and telehealth appointments in addition to in-person visits, and they keep a second office in Winston-Salem at 514 South Stratford Road, Suite 306C, which is the practical one if you are coming from the western side of the Triad. The corporate wellness side has worked with Volvo, Truist, UNCG, Wake Forest University, and Bank of Oak Ridge, and the practice states it is currently accepting new patients.
Smart Mouth Nutrition: Functional, Gut-Focused Care
Rima Kleiner, MS, RDN, LDN, runs Smart Mouth Nutrition and carries two credentials past the RD worth knowing about: IFNCP, the integrative and functional nutrition certification, and CLT, which is what qualifies her to run the LEAP food-sensitivity protocol. Her work leans toward digestive and gut health, food sensitivities, energy, and metabolism, and it is structured into named programs rather than open-ended sessions — a three-month one-to-one Metabolic Reset, a shorter Metabolic Jumpstart online course, a Metabolic Accelerator membership, and functional lab testing. She publishes no street address, and the practice runs on scheduled discovery calls and virtual sessions, which suits people with packed work schedules but is not the pick if you specifically want to sit down in a Greensboro office.
Moore Health and Nutrition Solutions: Chronic-Disease Nutrition on West Market
DeJuan Moore, a licensed registered dietitian, operates Moore Health and Nutrition Solutions out of 3703 West Market Street, Suite A, and offers both in-person visits and virtual appointments. The practice concentrates on the nutrition side of chronic conditions: weight management, prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, delivered as medical nutrition therapy rather than a one-size handout. Moore accepts Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, and Blue Cross Blue Shield, is listed as accepting new clients, and now also offers personalized exercise training alongside the counseling — an unusual pairing for a dietitian practice, and useful if the movement half of the plan is the half you keep dropping.
Eagle Physicians Nutrition Services: A Dietitian Inside a Local Group
Not every dietitian hangs a solo shingle. Eagle Physicians, an independent, physician-owned medical group that has served Greensboro for decades, keeps a registered dietitian on staff to provide outpatient nutrition counseling and medical nutrition therapy. That is Kathryn Doermann, RD, whose published scope runs from obesity, anemia, and nutrition deficits through Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease, hypertension, and congestive heart failure to digestive conditions including Crohn’s, diverticulitis, and celiac disease. Because she works alongside primary-care doctors, this route can be convenient if your physician is already in the Eagle network. Eagle Nutrition Services sits at 1210 New Garden Road and is open Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., on (336) 268-3133 — a separate address from Eagle’s Pomona Drive wellness location, which is worth checking before you drive.
Before You Book
A few practical notes before you schedule. Ask up front whether a practice is in-network with your insurance or cash-pay with a superbill you submit yourself, since that varies widely from office to office. If you have a specific diagnosis, such as an eating disorder, kidney disease, or IBS, ask which dietitian on the team handles it most often. And remember that fit matters as much as credentials: the right RD is the one whose style, whether highly structured or flexible and non-diet, actually keeps you coming back.
