Patient Testimonials:
"When I met Veronica, I was newly diagnosed with diabetes and thyroiditis and I thought food was the enemy. After following her nutritional advice and supplement regimen for 4 months, I am no longer diabetic (A1C is 5.3, feel better than I have felt in years and weigh less than I have in all my adult life (and still losing!). My blood tests also show that autoantibodies to my thyroid are decreasing. Her plan is reasonable enough to stick with for the long term, and I understand more of the physiology behind eating certain things and how they affect my health. She has taken the time to explain the "why" behind her recommendations, which makes them easier to follow." --AG

"After years of struggling with my health--weight gain, low energy, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, etc.--I was referred to Veronica to help me lose weight. Little did I know, I would have so many of my health issues addressed in one place! I admitted my skepticism from the beginning, but having stuck with her protocol for 5 months, I am now healthier than I've ever been. Veronica taught me how, what and why to eat certain foods. After having been misinformed most of my life about what constitutes nutritious food, I am now a huge believer in the more natural, holistic approach to health." --HD

"After years of suffering while unknowningly eating foods to which I have sensitivities, I am now almost totally free of gastrointestinal pain and upset. Veronic helped me discover which foods were causing problems for me and helped me develop a way of eating that fully supports my health. Veronica carefully listened to me, asked the right questions, and helped me to better understand my body. I now have an improved overall sense of well-being and have greatly improved GI function and sleep. I've been to many health care providers over my 65 years and have finally have found in Veronica one who looks at the whole you. Her knowledge and support are impressive. I am lucky to have found this resource! --LM

"I wanted a natural approach to dealing with my digestive and esophageal problems. I was also interested in changing my eating habits. Veronica listened carefully to my concerns and questions and came up with a plan to facilitate my needs. She was very helpful and accomodated my complicated traveling schedule. She was very responsive to my e-mails, answering quickly and addressing every question. Veronica is well informed, reasonable and committed to helping. She provided reading materials to back up the suggestions she gave. She has guided me through the process so that I could avoid drugs and adapt healthy eating habits." --GG
