Here at the Health Center, we like to think of ourselves as a family that takes care of your family! And did you know, one of our family members is a Registered Dietetic Technician? Her name is Lillian, and she’s here to help you create and meet your nutritional goals.
Meet Lillian:
Lillian is a Nutrition Counselor in the Health Center and for the health department’s WIC office.
She has been with the health department for 17 years.
Her love for nutrition started when she worked in the kitchen of a nursing home during high school. She became very interested in how the menus were planned, so she decided to go to college for dietetics!
During her spare time, she loves to read, run, play Candy Crush (it helps her relax!), and spending time with her family.
As a native to Mount Vernon, Lillian’s family still resides in the Knox County area.
How Lillian can help you!
