OUR PARTNERS IN HEALTH
Nutrition Partners
Sandy Cortez-Roberson, MS RDN
Registered Dietitian-Nutrition Therapist & Lifestyle Medicine Practitioner. I’m also a lover of life and anything health, nutrition and fitness-related. It is my mission and passion in life, to help men and women discover what Optimal Health feels like (inside and out). Previous clients and patients refer to me as Their GPS to Better Health, because I simplify ‘changes” as a ROADMAP, a clear guide through nutrition coaching and nutrition therapy to their destination. When we work together, you will be supported with the tools, a practical and optimistic approach as I help you achieve your goals and develop sustainable habits to live a healthy and balanced life.
No matter your story or history, you can start leading a better life today!
Diana Urcuyo, MS, RDN, CDCES
Are you ready to enjoy a relationship with food that doesn't involve deprivation or guilt? Feel like you are at a healthy weight that you have reached by healthy means? Finally be able to maintain a weight you desire for good? No longer will you be on a roller coaster of different diet plans, losing and regaining weight. My goal is to educate and empower you to eat foods you enjoy while losing and, most importantly, maintaining weight loss.
As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist that also practices medical nutrition therapy at a hospital on a part time basis, I can give you science supported nutrition information. No longer will you be confused by the latest nutrition fads with me as your supportive professional contact.
As you may have discovered weight isn't all about nutrition, so I use a holistic approach to figuring out what might be contributing to weight issues. I address a wide range of nutrition issues. I work with people of all ages with all types of health problems.

Activity Partners
Personal Trainers
John Gillham
John’s goal is to help people feel better through movement. As a kid he loved running. Remember that kid in gym class that liked running laps? Yep, he’s that guy. However, through all the years running track and cross country no one ever taught him how to crosstrain, how to exercise or resistance train. This left him skinny and weak. He could literally run 50 miles but could barely muster a few push ups. He could run straight and far but couldn’t cut and had no speed. He embarked on a mission to gain strength and muscle and absorbed as much knowledge as possible. As he gained strength and muscle he became more confident and wanted to help others find the confidence and energy he had found and that is what led him to start Gillham Fitness.
