Where the Order Comes From
Google's numbers only
Ratings and review counts are Google's, read in October 2026, and we never edit them.
Right kind, right place
Each practice carries Google's own nutritionist or dietitian category, has an address in New York and is rated 4.0 or higher. One company appears once.
History counts for more
The order weighs the rating by how many people gave it, so a large review history counts for more than a perfect score from a handful.
What each scorecard shows
Rating, size of the review history, the share of four and five star ratings, and whether Google lists a website, phone and hours.
Check the license
Registered dietitian (RD or RDN) is a national credential that a person has to earn and keep. The word nutritionist is used more loosely, and the rules for it differ from state to state. Before you book, ask which credential the person holds and where you can look it up, and ask whether they are licensed in New York.

- Is my insurance accepted, and what does a session cost in total?
- How many sessions are typical for what I need?
