Jordan Chen, MS, RD, LD

My name is Jordan Chen and I am the practice owner of Manhattan Nutrition Clinic. I was born and raised in Manhattan, KS. I have have always wanted to work in health care, but after realizing how important nutrition is for preventing the onset of so many diseases, I wanted to be in a career that helps people understand and implement good nutrition so they can have the best quality of life possible. 

I graduated from Kansas State University in dietetics in 2015 and went on to graduate with my Masters degree at the University of Kansas Medical Center in 2017. I completed my clinical training at the University of Kansas Hospital in Kansas City. While there, I worked in diabetes research as well as had work/research experience at the Weight Management Center at KU.

I also have work experience as an inpatient dietitian at Stormont Vail in Topeka and Via Christi Hospital, as well as working in the outpatient setting and heading the cardiac rehab program at Manhattan Medical Group and Heart and Vascular Clinics. I have the passion and experience for helping patients with cardiovascular issues, weight loss, and diabetes management. I have worked with patients on a variety of other nutrition related concerns as well including gastrointestinal issues, malnutrition, and renal disease.

Some hobbies of mine include spending time with my family, being outdoors, and going on runs or walks. I have two little boys and you may also see me helping out at my husband's local restaurant here in Manhattan. 

Lizz Daniels, RD, LD

My name is Lizz Daniels, and I am a registered dietitian located in the Manhattan, KS area. My fascination and interest in nutrition stems from my own personal journey with my weight and eating habits. I consider myself a realist and strive to help others be the authors of their own success stories by working with clients to develop realistic and achievable goals that they can be proud of.

I am originally from Central New York but came to Kansas by way of the military and my husband is currently stationed at Fort Riley. Together, we have two boys and a dog named Belle. Camping and being among the trees is my happy place and when I am not thinking about our next adventure you may find me at a local coffee shop or stepping back in time and walking through the historic K-State campus.
