About

Roberta Gershner, MS RD CDN

As a Registered Dietitian (R.D.) and nutritionist, I can help you in any stage of your life -- whether a child or senior -- to deal with health related conditions, lose weight,or just feel better through proper diet and exercise.

I have two offices in Westchester County NY - my primary office is at 42 Stonegate Road, in Ossining and I also have an office at 1985 Crompond Road in Cortlandt Manor across the street from Hudson Valley Hospital.

I participate in many health insurance plans including: Aetna, Affinity Health Plan, Atlantis Health Plan, CareConnect, Cigna HealthCare, Empire Blue Cross & Blue Shield, Hudson Health Plan, HIP, Medicare, Multiplan Network, MVP, Oxford Health Plans, POMCO, United Healthcare.

If you are looking for a Registered Dietitian or Nutritionist in Westchester County who treats every body as an individual, I hope that you contact me.

I provide nutrition counseling and the support needed to change eating behaviors aimed at improving health, preventing disease, and maintaining weight. Every Body is Different!

My patients come in all shapes and sizes....infants and seniors, men and women, underweight and overweight, those who are healthy and those with serious medical conditions. Some patients find me on their own, through personal recommendations or through a referral from their physician. I begin with assessing your diet and health, talk to you about your personal motivations for change, develop a personal nutrition and eating plan, work with you to set realistic goals for you, teach you how to implement the plan and monitor your progress.

We'll talk about your general well-being, such as level of tiredness. We'll discuss if you eat when you are hungry or if you use food to satisfy cravings or to overcome moods. And, we'll factor the importance of regular exercise into your lifestyle changes.

From "A to Z," here are some of the reasons that people come to me at my private practice for Nutritional Advice: Anemia, Celiac Disease, Chronic Renal Failure, Colitis, Constipation, Coronary Artery Disease, Coronary Vascular Disease, Crohn's Disease, Diabetes (Type 1 and 2), Diverticulitis, Diverticulosis, Eating Disorders, Food Allergies, Food Sensitivities, Gallbladder Pain, Gastric Reflux, Gestational Diabetes, Gluten-Free Diets, Heart Disease, High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol, Hyperactivity, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Irritable Bowel Nutrition, Kidney Disease, Lactose Intolerance, Menopause, Obesity, Osteoporosis, Overweight, Organic Eating, Pediatric Diets, Pre-natal Diets, Sports Nutrition, Ulcerative Colitis, Underweight, Vegan Diets, Vegetarian Diets, Weight Management,

When I am not seeing patients, I devote much of my time to learning the latest research in dietetics and medical nutrition therapy, so that I can help you with traditional as well as the latest nutrition therapies. I am also a frequent lecturer for many organizations including the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America.

Roberta is an expert about nutrition. Her knowledge of how food effects your body and your diseases is uncanny. She told me that she has been practicing for over 40 years and I can believe it.

She is also a very nice, accommodating lady.

What a brilliant and delightful person! She is extremely knowledgeable and knows how to impart her expertise to her patients and make it easy to understand.

Roberta listened to my history and asked if I had ever been tested for Celiac disease. After I said "No" she suggested that I go to my physician and ask to have the test done. Guess what happened!! I had undiagnosed and untreated Celiac disease. With my new diet I am now feeling a million times better.
