Practitioner partnerships allow us to use a team approach to fighting disease through a change in lifestyle and nutrition.
Studies show that registered dietitians that engage in practitioner partnerships can help to prevent, assess, and treat nutrition-related conditions.
Added Value Service
In today’s world, patients are more aware of the relationship between lifestyle and disease. They want a well-defined pathway to achieve a healthier life. Often they are looking for guidance from their doctor or healthcare practitioner.
Partnering with Anderson’s Nutrition provides your patients with the education, resources, and support they need to prevent disease, experience weight loss, and have improved health outcomes. Anderson’s Nutrition can become an extension of the care regime you establish, providing expert Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs) to guide your patients towards their healthier life.
These practitioner partnerships and the team approach reduce the time for the practitioner while having ready access to affordable nutrition services. And the best part? It does not cost your practice anything.
Nutrition Modality
The first step to creating a healthy lifestyle is learning evidence-based nutrition education. Because our RDNs are trained nutrition experts, each patient has access to proven modalities that help with their nutrition needs.
Weight Loss
For the past decade, our patients have experienced weight loss that has stayed off! In our counseling environment, we enable new eating behaviors that lead to sustainable weight loss.
Disease Management
The team of RDNs will conduct Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) to create a nutrition plan to optimally manage the disease and possibly reduce the need for some medications.
Behavior Change
Blending the nutrition expert with the health coach yields long-lasting changes. Our RDNs are trained in behavior-modifying techniques like Motivational Interviewing.

How the Practitioner Partnerships with Us Work
We offer two main types of ways to get nutrition services to your patients and clients. One is through the referrals. which is where the patient or client will cover the cost of the visit using insurance or self-pay. The other way is for your company or organization to pay the cost.
Referrals
We love referrals! We have a full-time referral coordinator that can contact your patients to get them started. Very little time or energy is needed by your medical staff. Simply send us a referral or provide info to the patient. We will do the rest.
You can submit your OWN referral form, demographic sheet, or use our form. To get our referral form, please email info@andersonsnutrition.com. We can send you a referral tear pad or provide a PDF for printing.
The process is simple: Fax at 833-755-0838 or encrypted email at info@andersonsnutrition.com. Then let our referral team take it from there.
We send monthly progress notes to the patient’s practitioner to ensure that each practitioner is informed. For any questions, please let us know.
Partnerships
If you are a practice or business that is looking to cover the cost of the nutrition counseling or coaching, we have you covered! We offer nutrition visits at the duration you like. You can add nutrition services as a new program or as part of an existing program, to provide that added value service
