Synergy Health & Wellness announced the expansion of its nutrition and diabetes therapy team and opening of a new location at 1001 NW Canal Blvd in Redmond.

Synergy complements a shared building space with High Lakes Healthcare, Endocrinology Services NW and Family Care Center. Appointments for its Bend and Redmond locations can be made at 541-323-3488.

The newest member to the Synergy team is Kacey Conyers. She is a registered dietitian and certified diabetes educator bringing several years of outpatient experience working with patients of all ages with diabetes, including insulin management and providing compassionate care to those struggling with managing medication and lifestyle changes.

Conyers earned her masters in nutrition and dietetics at Loma Linda University, which focused on the preventative health and wellness of the whole person — body, mind and spirit.

“We are absolutely thrilled about the expansion announcements to better serve patients throughout the Central Oregon region,” said RanDee Anshutz, RDN and founder at Synergy in a press release.

“Our expanded team of experts will allow Synergy to offer more patient appointment times, more nutrition and diabetes group support and education programs and more.”

The next Thriving with Diabetes four-week session begins Sept. 12 from 9 to 11 am. To better serve clients and honor their personal health and safety concerns, Synergy is offering a hybrid session where participants can choose to attend in person or virtually. Clients can sign up at www.synergyhealthbend.com/diabetes-education-program.html.

Synergy Health & Wellness is a comprehensive center for Diabetes and nutrition counseling and massage therapy. Its AADE Accredited Diabetes program team includes five Registered Dietitian Nutritionists, one CDE RN and offers both individual and group training sessions.

Synergy is the largest private clinic in Central Oregon to serve those with diabetes. This specialty is one of several that Synergy is known for, while the clinic also treats gastrointestinal and kidney disorders, hypertension, eating disorders, body image, and weight concerns.

Popular programs include WalkStrong, a 12-week training program, group classes such as Healing Body Trust®, and private shopping and cooking instruction. More at www.synergyhealthbend.com or call 541-323-3488.
