No-Cost Nutrition Consultations

Cancer and cancer treatments may affect taste, smell, appetite and the ability to eat enough food or absorb the nutrients from food. Because of this, many cancer patients find it hard to eat well. Finding a diet that works for you and your lifestyle is important for healing, fighting infection, building strength, and increasing energy.

The Dempsey Center provides nutrition consultations at no cost to cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers.

A private appointment with our registered dietitian can help you:

  • Understand the challenges to eating well;
  • Learn practical tips for improving your nutrition; and,
  • Become confident that you can maintain a healthy weight, improve strength, and decrease side effects during and after treatment.

*Private nutrition consultations are currently only available to Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts residents. Nutrition workshops and class series have no location restrictions.
