Nutrition services provided at the center include treatment for conditions like cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, and chronic kidney disease, according to its website

The change comes after a review from the health system found that patient needs would be better met by relocating the services. It is part of a larger master space planning project to determine how Stanford Health facility resources can be best provided and utilized. 

Stanford Health is working with its patients to ensure that that service transition is smooth, the statement said.
