Hello, I'm Ellen Madison Griffiths, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. I'm happy to share the benefit of more than 30 years of helping people meet their nutritional goals. For some conditions such as simple weight management, elevated blood sugar and blood cholesterol levels, I have learned how to help people make significant progress in 3 or fewer visits.
I think I'm a good listener. I like to remind clients that they don't have to change everything overnight to succeed at improving their health. Many times small changes, applied consistently, yield big improvements.
I obtained my Bachelor’s degree from Howard University and a Master’s degree in Public Health from the University of Michigan. I've worked in a variety of health care settings but of longest standing in the treatment of chronic diseases with nutritional care and in behavioral health nutrition.
At Morning Health, we are building the biggest network of independent dietitian practices and technology platform to connect them with patients and doctors.
We help both patients and doctors.
For patients, you can find the right dietitian who is specialized in your health needs, take your insurance and familiar with your diet.
For doctors, we facilitate them to refer their patients to our network to find and book with a right dietitian. We support our partnered doctors to build a medical practice seamless integrated with nutrition and other professional services from our network.
Our partnered practices currently work with United Healthcare, Cigna, Aetna, Anthem, CareFirst, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medicare and some Medicaid plans in Maryland, DC and Virginia.
Your nutrition counseling sessions with a registered dietitian may be fully covered by your insurance company. 90% of Morning Health clients pay $0 out-of-pocket!
You don't need a doctor referral to book an appointment with a dietitian at Morning Health. However, it is possible you would need a doctor's referral to have our care services covered by your insurance or you are in certain states like California.
If you need a referral, we will help you obtain it after you make an appointment.
Our partnered practices are currently in Maryland, DC, Virginia and California.
