Maintain a Healthy Diet

In-Person and Virtual Consultations

Our registered dietitian nutritionists offer individual consultations to develop detailed plans based on your needs and goals. You can meet in person or virtually for an assessment. Many health insurance plans cover nutrition consultations. If yours does not, out-of-pocket options are available.  

Call our nutrition office at 919-660-6656 or email Jaunetta Tapp at jaunetta.tapp@duke.edu to schedule a consultation. 

Testing Your Metabolism

For an additional fee, an optional test can determine your resting metabolic rate using a calorimeter. This gives your dietitian nutritionist an accurate reading of your metabolism. They use it to create your personalized nutritional plan.

The resting metabolic rate test costs $70 for members and $85 for non-members. To learn more about the test or to schedule an appointment, call our nutrition office at 919-660-6656 or Jaunetta Tapp at jaunetta.tapp@duke.edu to schedule a consultation.
