• Dietitian & Nutritionist

Karthika’s professional passion is to help patients and families achieve their health goals
through practical, culturally-appropriate and individualized action plans. While
advocating personal and flexible nutrition interventions, she is also apt at using
technology to define a patients’ baseline and tracking their progress. At Tucker Medical,
she is heavily involved in nutritional metabolic therapy for cancer patients, both during
active treatment and for prevention.
Karthika also works with patients and families in areas outside of cancer care. She is an
expert in supporting disease reversal in conditions such as diabetes and prediabetes,
fatty liver disease, and metabolic syndrome. She endorses an extensive use of nutritional
interventions across the spectrum from low carb and ketogenic diets to low-fat and
vegetarian/vegan eating styles. As a Singapore local, from an ethnically Indian
background, and with training and practice in the US, she understands and applies the
appropriate cultural, religious, and emotional landscape of nutrition and dietary
management.
