1930241_1049097999473_3190_nThis week, we’re pleased that Pamela Schoenfeld (yes, Laura’s mom!) is joining us for another discussion tailored to both practicing dietitians and RD-to-be’s!

Pam is a registered dietitian who practices holistic nutrition, which means she considers the total health of both the mind and the body when working with clients. She is a graduate of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, the University of Maryland, and the College of Saint Elizabeth. She has a Masters degree in nutrition and has completed extensive additional training in integrative health, nutrition, and wellness.

She has been a mentor to Laura throughout her educational program and now as she builds her career, and would be happy to speak to other dietitians about mentorship opportunities to help get their businesses up and running. Contact her for a free consult about her mentor services!

  • Get a Tax Identification Number from the IRS
  • Get professional liability insurance through the AND website
  • Get a National Provider Number or NPI
