Patients with the following medical conditions are encouraged to see a Dietitian: diabetes, heart-related conditions, those considering bariatric surgery, pregnancy, gastrointestinal-related conditions, and patients with any other nutrition-related condition.

AltaMed PACE is the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly. It was created for seniors who are managing multiple health conditions who need just a little extra help but aren’t ready for assisted living.
With AltaMed PACE, seniors are picked up at their homes and transported in style – you’ve probably seen the vans in your neighborhood! A few days a week, seniors visit a community-focused center where they get medical care and meals and can participate in social activities. Best of all, AltaMed PACE visits and services may be covered by Medicare.
