Me mum's used to be an anesthesiologist as well, but switched over to what's called in the US a "general practitioner", I believe, due to health issues (also - ridiculously enough - there being more money working as one than as an anesthesiologist at the hospital, heh, despite not having as much life-and-death responsibility, lol). I don't believe she's had much training as regards nutrition per se, apart from personal interest I believe, but she said that stuff like this is covered by entry-level classes at the Med-U (human anatomy and human physiology, heh).
Trouble is, as she once put it, "the fact that someone is an MD does not mean they're a good doctor. It simply means they passed all the required exams".
I remember her saying this in the context of seeing a colleague who was very deferential to her, yet whom she mad-dogged hard in response.
She went all: "For future reference: never go to this guy for treatment. We studied together. He flunked anatomy. Twice."
