EnglishHow to Find a Registered Dietitian in Maryland Through MAND
Updated
The Maryland Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (MAND) offers a "Find a Registered Dietitian in Maryland" resource on its website. It is designed for anyone in Maryland seeking nutrition guidance that is personal, practical, and grounded in science. To use it, go to eatwellmd.org and look for the "Find a Registered Dietitian in Maryland" section under Resources & Opportunities.
What the MAND Directory Is
MAND is a non-profit professional organization representing Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs), Dietetic Technicians, Registered (DTRs), and dietetic students in Maryland. It operates as an affiliate of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND), described on the site as the nation's largest organization of food and nutrition professionals.
The "Find a Registered Dietitian in Maryland" resource sits within MAND's Resources & Opportunities area. Its stated purpose is to connect people with nutrition advice that is personal, practical, and grounded in science.
Who This Resource Is For
- Maryland residents looking for professional nutrition guidance from a credentialed provider.
- Anyone who wants science-based advice rather than general wellness content — the directory is framed around registered dietitians specifically.
- People who prefer a local provider — the listing is scoped to Maryland.
If you are outside Maryland, this particular resource is not aimed at you; you would want the affiliate organization for your own state.
How to Use It
- Go to eatwellmd.org.
- Navigate to the Resources & Opportunities section.
- Select Find a Registered Dietitian in Maryland.
- Review the dietitians listed and contact one directly to discuss your needs.
The site does not publish details about how individual listings are formatted, whether filters exist, or what contact information each entry includes. Expect to reach out to a provider directly to confirm availability, specialties, and appointment logistics.
What MAND Does Beyond the Directory
MAND's stated mission is to empower its members to be Maryland's food and nutrition leaders, with a vision of optimizing the health and well-being of Marylanders through food and nutrition. Other resources on the site include:
| Resource | What it offers |
|---|---|
| Job Postings | Connects employers and registered dietitians across Maryland |
| Upcoming Events | Educational programs, professional development, networking, and social gatherings |
| MAND Foundation & Scholarships | Annual scholarships for MAND members, open September 15 – January 15 |
These are aimed primarily at professionals and students in the field rather than the general public, though the events and job pages are open to view.
Practical Notes
- MAND is a 501(C)(6) organization; its charitable branch, the MAND Foundation, is a 501(c)(3).
- Membership in MAND is open to members of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics who reside in Maryland or choose Maryland as their affiliate — so the dietitians you find through MAND are connected to a national professional network.
- The site does not state whether the directory service or any consultation is free. Confirm costs directly with the dietitian you contact.
If your goal is simply to find a credentialed nutrition professional in Maryland, the MAND directory is the most direct route the organization provides.
