Tanner Clinic dietitians work with patients who have eating disorders or feeding disorders. A dietitian is qualified to write meal plans and give guidance to patients with various diseases in order to help them improve their health status. Some people without a disease may request guidance from a dietitian in order to prevent diseases. This is especially true for those who have a family history of the diseases mentioned above.
