OUR BACKGROUND
Words from our Founder
Hi there,
My name is Gloria. I am a registered dietitian that specializes
in heart healthy nutrition counselling.
I completed my bachelor of science degree, major in dietetics
with honours from the University of British Columbia, and then afterwards went on to complete my dietetic internship with Vancouver Costal Health. I am a highly trained and regulated healthcare professional, registered in good standing with the College of Dietitians of British Columbia and Ontario and carry
a Dietitians of Canada membership.
I have a wide variety of experience with various client populations, with specializations in cardiac nutrition. I have both clinical and non-clinical experience working with individuals with heart disease and diabetes. I am currently working as a cardiac dietitian with the University Health Network's globally recognized Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation Program and have sought to start my own private practice to help more individuals with discovering a heart healthy lifestyle suitable for them.
Thank you for your time. I look forward to working together.
Best regards,
Gloria Sun, Cardiac Registered Dietitian
