Darlene Paluf, RDN, LD
Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist, Program Director
Darlene began her interest in medical weight management in 1984 as the nutrition director of the original Mt. Sinai Optifast program in Cleveland. In this capacity, she had the opportunity to work with the three physicians who invented Optifast and pioneered its use. We can truly say that Darlene’s experience with Optifast is more than most other programs nationally.
