How a Diabetes Dietitian Can Help
Managing diabetes is a daily job, and doing it alone can be exhausting. A diabetes dietitian helps take some of that weight off your shoulders by turning blood work and food choices into a plan you can actually follow. At Coastal Nutrition Counseling, our team of dietitians works with patients managing Type 1, Type 2, and gestational diabetes. You can meet with us at our Huntington, Long Island office or connect through telehealth from anywhere in the country. We can build a meal plan around your labs, your medications, and your lifestyle.
Type 1 diabetes
We help patients balance insulin, carbohydrates, and activity so blood sugar levels stay steadier day to day. We build meal plans around how your body
responds to food.
Type 2 diabetes
Our dietitians focus on food choices and eating habits that support long-term diabetes management, often working alongside medication changes
as your care evolves.
Gestational diabetes
We guide expecting mothers through food preferences and blood glucose targets specific to pregnancy, so you can protect your health and your baby's without unnecessary stress.
Insurance Coverage for Diabetes Counseling
Most nutrition counseling visits are covered by insurance with no cost to you. We're in-network with The Empire Plan, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Northwell Direct, Meritain Health, Emblem Health, United Healthcare, Oxford, and Cigna. We verify your benefits before your first appointment, so there are no surprises when you show up for care with your diabetes dietitian.
