Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

She is very knowledgeable on the subject of nutrition and provided some helpful info. However, before I saw her I had emailed her a detailed food list of what I liked to eat and requested her to put together a sample healthy monthly breakfast, lunch and dinner menus (with portion sizes) for each day. From this I could work with easily for eating. Instead she gave me basic food breakdowns of %carbs, fats , calories etc... for serving sizes plus number of servings per meal, total carbs and calories per day. This is helpful but this translates into a lot of work and time (& stress!) I don’t have/need to put together an eating plan. This is what I paid her to do for me. I do understand this is supposed to be a learning process for me but I basically know most of this stuff . I just needed someone to put it together for me. Am I going back to see her again??? Don’t really know- but doubt it.

Would NOT recommend. She did the basics with the consultation but then never get back to me again. I didn't feel like she was very secure with my information because she lost our personal information and had to request it again. she also didn't submit our information to the insurance like she was suppose to so I had to pay for it out of pocket.
