About Us

About Us: The History

Dietitians On Demand was launched in 2005 when Alicia Davis, RD, a registered dietitian, recognized that a temporary nutrition consulting service was needed to provide staffing support for dietitians. Initially focusing on the local area, Alicia and Ryan Davis formed a staffing company operated out of the spare bedroom of their Richmond, Va. townhouse. Today, Dietitians On Demand employs more than 500 dietitians annually and has grown to become an industry leader in nationwide clinical nutrition consulting.

In 2022, Dietitians On Demand launched a new branch of the company focused on connecting the general public with our amazing registered dietitians for 1:1 virtual consultations. With this program, Dietitians On Demand is now a one-stop shop for anyone who needs a dietitian. And the best part? They’re on demand!

Ryan and Alicia Davis, RD, started Dietitians On Demand in 2005.
