Found this on google
A dietitian (or dietician) is an expert in dietetics; that is, human nutrition and the regulation of diet. A dietitian alters their patient's nutrition based upon their medical condition and individual needs.
Spelling of dietitian with a “c” does not pre-date spelling as 'dietitian' which first appeared in print in 1846. The variant spelling "dietician," is found in print in a 1917 issue of Nation and in the Oxford English Dictionary in 1906. The origin is an evolution of physician specializing in diet – dietician.
So, in the absence of clear client instructions, would it be safe to use any one and maintain consistency or safer to stick to dietitian?
