About US

Dt. Poonam Sharma is not only the founder and chief dietitian at Health First Diet Clinic, but she is also the driving force behind its philosophy of pragmatic, compassionate, and effective nutrition counseling. Her credentials as a seasoned clinical dietitian are matched by over 15 years of experience in clinical nutrition, lifestyle disease management, and preventive healthcare. She holds a post-graduate diploma in Dietetics and multiple certifications in women’s health, diabetes management, and clinical nutrition. Poonam is an engaged member of prestigious organizations like the Indian Dietetic Association and the Diabetes Educators Society of India, reflecting her commitment to ongoing learning and professional excellence.
Her vision for the clinic was shaped by early encounters with patients frustrated by fad diets, supplement reliance, or impersonal advice—a system she knew needed change. Dt. Poonam’s approach goes beyond calories or restrictive trends, focusing instead on the underlying factors that fuel health issues, and creating meal plans rooted in cultural familiarity, scientific evidence, and genuine empathy.
The Clinic’s Philosophy and Approach
At the core of Health First Diet Clinic’s work is the conviction that food, when thoughtfully chosen and harmoniously integrated into daily life, can heal, restore, and energize. Dt. Poonam’s signature style emphasizes:
Natural, Indian Meal Plans: Every plan is customized to incorporate the foods clients already have in their kitchens, allowing for effortless adaptation and higher compliance. She avoids extreme or foreign foods, instead turning to seasonal produce, native grains, traditional recipes, and locally available ingredients.
No Crash Diets or Shortcuts: The clinic upholds the idea that health is a lifelong journey, not a race. There are no crash diets, meal-replacement shakes, or magic pills—just real food, mindful portioning, and balanced nourishment.
Root-Cause Healing: Rather than treating only symptoms, Dt. Poonam investigates the underlying causes of weight fluctuations, hormonal imbalances, chronic fatigue, digestive issues, and related health concerns.
Empowerment through Education: Dt. Poonam spends time educating each client, helping them understand “why” behind every recommendation. This ensures long-lasting change and confidence in making choices even after the plan ends.
Comprehensive Services
The clinic’s scope of service is broad and well-structured, ensuring that people of all ages, backgrounds, and medical histories benefit from nutrition that is as unique as they are. Among the many challenges addressed are:
Weight loss and weight management, using scientifically developed plans that guard against muscle loss or nutritional deficiencies.
Women’s health, including PCOD, irregular periods, hormonal imbalances, infertility support, and nutrition for all stages of life.

Specialized programs for postpartum recovery, child and teen nutrition, pre-wedding diets, elderly wellness, and guidance for busy professionals with erratic routines.
With both in-person consultations in Greater Noida and remote counseling accessible pan-India, the clinic successfully combines convenience with individualized support.
