Please continue to follow our COVID policies: you and your visitor must wear a mask to the appointment and keep it on for the duration of the appointment. Social distance in common areas, wash your hands before your appointment, and if you’re sick, please reschedule. Doing so continues to assure the safety of you, other patients, our providers and staff.
Oakdale Dietitian Kim Plessel says, "As we embark on the New Year, it isn't uncommon to be flooded with diet advice or to make new resolutions for our health. As we continue to learn about the power of nutrition, one theme continues to emerge - quality matters. Regardless of calories or macros, let's focus our efforts on eating whole, real food. As the New York Times article highlights, our day-to-day food choices can dramatically impact our gut microbiome, which in turn impacts our health. Small, sustainable improvements add up over time."
