At UCSF Health, we excel in evidence-based care for patients admitted to our inpatient units at Parnassus, Mission Bay, and Mount Zion hospitals as well as patients seen in our outpatient clinics throughout the Bay Area. Our team of Registered Dietitians (RDs) are food and nutrition experts who meet the credentialing requirements of Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND). All RDs have a minimum of a bachelor's degree in dietetics with completed internships and many of them have a graduate degrees and specialty certifications.
