Laurie McDonald, RD  (Registered Dietitian)

Laurie graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition and went on to complete her Dietetic Internship at the same university. She spent 5-1/2 years working as a clinical dietitian at Banner Heart Hospital and also providing coverage at Banner Baywood Medical Center, before opening her private practice in fall of 2019. Laurie enjoys helping clients move forward with whatever their goals may be, always focusing on health first.   

Laurie enjoys being outdoors, exercising and reading a good novel. She likes to run and hike on desert and mountain trails and considers any wrong turn she makes (directionally or otherwise) to be “taking the scenic route”. Laurie and her husband collectively have 4 grown children, 2 daughter-in-laws and two wonderfully fun granddaughters.
