Robin Atwood
Registered Dietitian Nutritionist

Nutrition can be a powerful tool to improve health, reduce the risk of many conditions and incorporate into a treatment plan for many diseases. That includes cancer, and Robin Atwood, a registered dietitian nutritionist at Sentara RMH Medical Center, is passionate about providing nutrition counseling and education to those touched by cancer, both patients and their caregivers.

With the vast amount of ongoing nutrition research being conducted, I am always learning something new to pass on to my patients,” Robin notes. “Each patient presents his/her own puzzle made up of many pieces, and it’s fun to try to ‘solve’ each puzzle.”
