Culinary Creations — Inspired by Chef Michelle Bernstein
Healthful food can be delicious. Award-winning chef Michelle Bernstein has teamed up with Memorial Cancer Institute to bring signature recipes to patients in cancer treatment at Memorial Regional Hospital, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital and Memorial Hospital West.
These flavorful, appealing meals and snacks enhance nutrition for patients on their journey to cancer survivorship while they are in the hospital and during outpatient treatments. Patients in all three locations may select Chef Bernstein’s Culinary Creations on their room service menu. We also serve complimentary soups, muffins and delicious snacks to adults and children during outpatient chemotherapy treatments to enhance their comfort and well being.
Chef Michelle Bernstein talks about helping cancer patients have a better experience through more flavorful and nutritious meals.

Nutritional Counseling
When you’re facing cancer, a healthy diet is more important than ever. Helping you make the right nutritional choices is part of how we care for all of you, not just treat your cancer.
Food is just as important as medicine, and Memorial Cancer Institute can connect you with one of our registered dieticians to make sure you’re fueling your body right to fight cancer. Proper nutrition during and after cancer treatment can help:
- Boost your immune system
- Build and maintain your strength
- Improve your response to side effects
- Prevent cancer recurrence
Let Memorial Cancer Institute’s dietician work with you to create a healthy diet plan you can follow to keep you in the best possible shape. Please call Memorial Cancer Institute at 954-265-4325 or email us to schedule an appointment.
