How it works:

Start by completing our get started quiz and booking your dietitian. We’ll verify your insurance benefits within 24 business hours and confirm your appointment if you’re in-network. If you’re out-of-network, we’ll provide information about our affordable self-pay plans.

Begin with an in-depth initial consultation with your registered dietitian. During this session, we will order labs, including A1c, fasting glucose, and lipids, to assess your current health status. Alternatively, if your medical provider has conducted these labs within the last 30 days, you can upload the results to our secure message system, and we’ll add them to your chart.

Engage in structured, personalized 1:1 sessions with your dietitian every week. Our diverse team of experienced dietitians will support you in making sustainable lifestyle changes to lower your A1c and improve your relationship with food. Topics include an initial assessment, personalized nutrition plan, joyful movement, hydration, nutritious breakfasts, meal timing, reducing added sugars, boosting fiber intake, powering up on protein, incorporating healthy fats, managing stress and improving sleep, and celebrating your success.

Learn how to balance blood sugar, nourish your body, and feel your best—without restriction. At the end of the 12-week program, we will order labs again to assess your progress. Based on your A1c results and overall progress, we’ll create a long-term plan to help you maintain and continue your health improvements.

What Clients Are Saying

Thank YOU for creating Diabetes Digital! I had no plans to work with a dietician because I was worried about feeling shame around my diagnosis as well as slipping back into disordered eating practices and ridiculous exercise habits. We’ve set some really small and attainable goals that we’re hoping with have a great impact on my A1C level in three months. We’re not cutting out foods. We’re looking at all facets of life (stress, sleep, what medications I’m taking, perimenopause), and it was made absolutely clear to me that pre-diabetes is not my fault.
Highly recommend. The dietician that I am working with is so good. I look forward to our visits. I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends. I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes and she has help guide me to adopt better eating habits. It’s not just about food. They will help you!!!
I initially requested nutrition counseling for weight loss, but thanks to Nikki’s guidance, my focus shifted. I’m finally learning to eat mindfully to manage my Type 1 diabetes—something I never received help with in 14 years. In a short time, I’ve implemented strategies for better glucose outcomes, like prepping smoothies for busy days, pairing nuts with fruit bars, and swimming 2–3 times a week. I love the collaborative approach—my sessions feel therapeutic, and I never feel judged.
I have already recommended Diabetes Digital and specifically Nikki to several people, even casual acquaintances I've met in support groups online. I am sincerely grateful to her for reminding me why I'm doing this hard thing. She's truly very good at her job and that's not always something that gets acknowledged. I'd gladly pay $1000/week for her. Thanks, Nikki.
As a first timer to one-on-one coaching, my dietitian was very warm and welcoming. I have already recommended Diabetes Digital to a few friends because of the easy to use platform, the great service I have received so far from sign up to becoming a client, and can see myself actually seeing through any goals I create with my dietitian because of the great support.
I love that you have this program where I can learn more about my diagnosis. I was turned down by several other digital companies because I'm self-pay. Your company gave me the opportunity to get the help and knowledge I needed to live a healthy and fulfilling life.
Diabetes Digital has been such a good find! It’s very clear their dietitians are knowledgeable about diabetes. As a T1D it has been amazing working with a dietitian who understands my condition and how it relates to dietetics. They also fax my visit notes to my Endo to keep them informed. Definitely recommend!
My dietitian Jenny is amazing! Working with her has deepened my understanding of diabetes management and given me the confidence to make sustainable health choices. For the first time, I truly look forward to meeting with a healthcare provider. Her knowledge, compassion, and weight-inclusive approach are exactly what I needed. I’ve already been referring others—my aunt has her first appointment next week, and I know it will be life-changing for her!
Jenny Fernandez was great to work with. She was knowledgeable and empathetic. I could not have asked for more. I was on the fence about joining because I knew I needed to address my disordered eating with a mental health professional. While I know it requires a balance with nutritional counseling, I feel comfortable and confident in my nutrition education and that journey has already helped me get as far as I am today.
Lauryn is fantastic! I’m excited to continue our work together. She’s already educating me on small changes and is incredibly kind and sensitive. Plus she’s a joy to talk to. I appreciated her going through my recent test results to see how I’m doing with diabetes prevention and cholesterol management. I’m so thankful for this opportunity. Thanks for starting this organization.
I have seen my dietitian with Diabetes Digital for five sessions now, and it’s improved my approach to health and food so much! My dietitian is understanding, relatable, and makes me feel comfortable to be vulnerable and talk about my insecurities without judgement. I would recommend Diabetes Digital to anyone seeking nutrition counseling or counseling on preventing/managing diabetes. Gaining perspective from discussing with a professional is a game changer!
I originally followed the creators of DD because of their podcast and when I saw the announcement for this platform shortly after diagnosis, I knew I had to sign up! I have been a member for a few months now and couldn’t be happier with the decision. The dietitians are very knowledgeable and supportive! I highly recommend it for anyone looking for guidance and extra support in their journey.
This is a great program! It is completely covered by my insurance. They have a fresh and comfortable approach to prediabetes and helped me lower my A1C in only a few months.
I have already recommended Diabetes Digital to a few friends because of the easy to use platform, the great service I have received so far from sign up to becoming a client, and can see myself actually seeing through any goals I create with my dietician because of the great support.
Working with the Diabetes Digital team, especially Lauryn, has been life changing. We have explored not only tools related to diabetes prevention and cholesterol management, but also have discussed deeply how to have a healthy relationship with food through intuitive eating while also honoring cultural and heritage recipes. I highly recommend Diabetes Digital for anyone who is interested in working with a powerful, compassionate team!
Diabetes Digital has been an incredible support to me in my prediabetes journey!! The process was so simple, and intuitive to get signed up. I felt welcomed and supported every step of the way. My RD Lauryn is so kind, thoughtful and helpful. Diabetes Digital has been a game changer!!

Trusted by hundreds of current patients, with over 4,500 visits completed since 2024!
