Shima Fazelimanesh

I am a Clinical Registered Dietitian and specialize in renal disease, diabetes, GI including enteral (Tube Feedings) & parenteral nutrition. In addition to my private practice, I am currently working as an acute care clinical dietitian at Olive-View UCLA Medical Center, & as an Organ Transplant Dietitian at Keck Medical Center of USC & an outpatient Dialysis Cedars Sinai Medical Center; additionally, have led outpatient diabetes education and weight loss and bariatric education classes at Olive View UCLA Medical Center. My goal is to help & teach my patients how to make nutritionally sound food choices to speed the recovery process.

I use the latest scientifically evidence based research on medical nutrition therapy consultations to assess, monitor, & optimize nutrition status based on patients’ current chronic medical conditions &/or nutrition adequacy. I review functional blood chemistry analysis, before set any goals & make recommendations for my patients.

I have an extensive experience & helped hundreds of patients at my own private practice to manage their diabetes, slow kidney disease progression & delaying or preventing the need for dialysis by developing personalized nutrition plans while considering factors including nutritional status, medications, & specific chronic diseases control.
