Promoting Lifetime Habits
Not Short-Term Diets

Nancy J. Peckenpaugh, MSEd, RD, CDN, CDE — Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Educator

You may have heard of me through my many years of being a dietitian in the Ithaca area, or when I lived and practiced in Bermuda. It was in Bermuda that I developed skills working with diabetes using one of the first blood glucose meters, the One Touch by Johnson & Johnson. Back home in the Ithaca area I have had amazing opportunities working with Dr. Adam Law’s endocrinology practice, being credited by him of bringing Carbohydrate Counting to Ithaca, but also helping to start the use of insulin pump therapy in Ithaca.

So, how can I help you? I will first listen to your story with your experiences and concerns. Together we will work out strategies that are realistic for you, yet effective from my point of view. It may take a few tries to find the best approach for you.

I am a provider with Medicare and credentialed with Aetna and expect to be credentialed by the other locally available insurance companies. I will keep updating the list of health care companies who cover the services of a registered dietitian, and specifically me, but you can always email or call to ask if you have a different health insurance coverage. If you do email me don't provide any confidential information until you reply to my email back to you when it will then be encrypted per HIPAA standards.

I look forward to working with you on your journey to meet your personal health and nutrition goals. There are many strategies and approaches, but only a few that will work for you. I look forward to finding out your specific needs and making your lifestyle changes easy.
