Some of my favorite people are RDs. I’ve been blessed to team teach with many inspiring, kind, knowledgeable and dynamic dietitians over a span of more than 20 years. They are trailblazers and advocates for improving the health of our communities, in both the inpatient and outpatient settings. They have the best teaching tools (who doesn’t love the rubber chicken, food samples and empty cereal boxes) and a breadth of knowledge that they freely share with patients and colleagues alike.

Dana Armstrong, RD, CDCES (pictured far left) is a leader and an innovator in the field of diabetes, nutrition, and technology. Dana is a nationally recognized speaker, consultant, and the Medical Clinic Director of the Diabetes Center/Salinas Valley Medical Clinic.
I love that Dana pushes boundaries, questions the status quo and is a fierce advocate for people living with diabetes. We love you Dana and appreciate the decades of dedication and service you have contributed to our community.
