Nicole Schillinger (RD)

EXPERIENCE AND CREDENTIALS

To qualify as a Registered Dietitian (RD), Nicole Schillinger completed all of the training, education, and licensing requirements necessary to practice in the state of Pennsylvania. She has worked as a clinical RD for over 21 years in managerial and directorial roles in hospitals, nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Since 2011 she has been running her private practice, Functional Health Center LLC, in Ambler, Pennsylvania.

Over the course of her career, and now, as a Registered Dietitian directing her own private practice, Nicole skillfully uses Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) to help individuals with serious and multiple diseases to improve the quality of their lives.

In her own words, “It is very gratifying to educate patients with several disease states. I’m able to give them the tools to adjust their lifestyle, make healthier choices, follow an exercise regimen, and feel better about themselves.”
