I have absolutely no reason to lie about my experience with them . I believe my consistency speaks for itself and shows I am being honest. Most businesses either don't respond or ask how they can improve. Not address it by implying the person a liar. Oh and by the way, I recently went to another Nutritionist and learned so much more in 1 hour with her than I did in the 7 or so visits with Cathy. AND they took care of billing my insurance. Update: 5/28/15 I received a letter from a lawyer shortly after this last review demanding I remove my review within a certain amount of days or she (Cathy) would pursue a claim against me because of my false and defamatory statements. I supposedly posted opinions which I claimed to be facts. So even though I thought Yelp was a place to post my opinions about a review, I agreed to remove anything that was an "opinion". Which I have now done. I also received an email from Cathy...I wish I could post a copy here. It was not a very nice email. The most laughable part of it is that she tried to tell me the "correct" way to post a review. Apparently, I have to also say something positive about the place I am reviewing.

At first I wasn't sure if I wanted to do this, but after a long time, I decided to take the plunge…read moreand went with the 4 2 plan. Ok, what is the 4 2 plan? Well, you eat basically 6 meals a day, around 2.5 hours between meals. 4 of the meals are the packaged Medifast products, the other 2 are lean-and-greens. I was able to loss roughly 6 lbs the first week, 4 lbs the 2nd week,and it's going down down! The Cuppacino mix, was yuck, and I was about to give them lesser stars over it, but after talking to them, they are replacing the Cuppacino with another box that I like! Yeah! The Snack bars are really tasty! This really helps those that just do not have the time to figure it out. Oh, and be careful, you can have another box ordered automatically, you may have to let them know you may not want this, since I have a strict budget and cannot have automatic stuff coming to me. You'll also get a dietitian to work with you besides Cathy, Marianne from New York has been helping me as well! :)

I began seeing Kathleen after I had an eating disorder relapse, and I am so glad I did. Out of all…read moreof the dietitians I've seen, including the "top" dietitians in an eating disorder treatment center, Kathleen is by far the best. She takes a holistic approach by using her dietetics expertise in combination with her knowledge of counseling and coaching to help address my eating behaviors AND the roots of my behaviors. She understood that my eating behaviors and thoughts towards food stem from deeper issues and thus provides me with more than just a meal plan. I also like the way Kathleen helped me with my meal plan. She added to what I was already eating instead of starting me on a completely different plan. It felt more comfortable and attainable. She has the perfect balance of pushing me to step out of my comfort zone in order to be healthy, while also being patient and understanding of my issues and fears. Kathleen is willing to work with an individual's doctor, therapist, and/or psychiatrist to help provide the best treatment possible. This is extremely helpful! Additionally, her office is comfortable and inviting, communication and making appointments is very easy, and I have never had any issues with insurance or billing. I highly recommend Kathleen for any individual seeking nutritional counseling, with or without an eating disorder. She is great at what she does and is a joy to be around. She also does phone consultations!

The front desk staff, medical assistants, surgery scheduler and dietician interactions are very customer oriented, the staff is very knowledgeable, and they are always responsive when I need assistance. Dr. Billing has been my medical provider, and I cannot say enough great things about him. He is an amazing surgeon, always takes the time to thoroughly walk through procedures with me and address questions and makes himself personally available to contact if I have any complications from procedures. With the current state of healthcare in the U.S., it is rare to find a clinic where the focus is truly on the client, adequate time is taken to personally know you and address any questions or concerns, and it is evident they care about your well-being. With their help, I have lost over 140lbs and am getting help to address other medical issues. I highly recommend their clinic!

Whilst I appreciate their knowledge in general on obesity and acknowledging it's a chronic disease…read more I couldn't NOT get on board that they believe T2D just can "go away" or be "cured". T2D once diagnosed it's either you're CONTROLLED or you're not. To be told that directly from one of the obesity doctors and then told this by one of the dietitians.... Made me feel completely sick to my stomach. To spread such misinformation is beyond scary. I also cannot get on board that they think GLP1 medicines are a "tool" to help aide in weight loss... rather than it being a life long medicine. Would you tell a patient with HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE to just get off their meds?! NO! I challenge their way of thinking and ask, okay let's say someone loses their weight with the help of a GLP1 medicine, then gets off. You think the food noise is just miraculously cured?! Or their metabolic dysregulation is cured as well?! WHY do other obesity doctors disagree with their old way of thinking, and agree with what I am saying?! In my opinion that's just lazy medical practice of thinking with an OUTDATED mentality. Please step into 2024! I cried after getting off my dietitian call, that was the LAST straw for me. To be basically told for the 2nd time for someone who works at this place- that my T2D is basically gone - I wanted to scream. I cannot say this enough ... it doesn't matter if you lost 150lbs and your A1C is 5.5! ONCE A DIABETIC ALWAYS ONE. You are again- either CONTROLLED OR YOU ARE NOT. WHY is that so hard to grasp?! Unbelievable! WHY are all dietitians the same?! It's like they read out of the same damn text book and there's a huge disconnect. I basically paid $150 for her to tell me to eventually do KETO.... Right.... Like I haven't tried that SEVERAL times in my damn life. How insulting and degrading. I WILL be on the hunt for a good, informed, up to date onesity doc/clinic. It's such a shame we have to shop doctors because not enough want to get on board in 2024 and keep up with the data that proves GLP1 medicines are helping aid in so many chronic conditions that they ARE for LONG TERM maintenance. Should've known there was a red flag when they have as their slogan "we try the HOLISTIC approach to weight loss". Yeah.... Okay. Aka move your body more, eat less (ring a bell to anyone?!) and this time we'll use these GLP1 meds until we say you should stop... HOW they cannot see the disconnect here I'll never understand. Thank GOD I've educated myself and I didn't go into anyone of those meetings blindly.

Short review: Your life is going to drastically change once…read moreyou begin engaging with Nicole! She is insightful, detailed, and is an invaluable resource in the Women's Health and Wellness fields. She is available for sessions in person and over digital platforms. She helps women at all stages of life which is refreshing and encouraging knowing she is just a call away. She is Latina and is from New York! Her perspective is raw and I love talking to her about women's health and how it relates to ME as a Black female woman from Seattle. Conversations about women's wellness and menstruation didn't take place in my communities growing up. Talking to her has transformed my life and those closest to me. No matter what topic comes up she can handle it and I love it! She is extremely easy to talk to, non-judgmental, and in her own way has empowered me with the tools to get my life in order. If you have any issues with your diet, food consumption, women's health, menstruation, emotional wellness, contraception, fertility, acne, stress, or simply needing to balance out your life... schedule your consultation today. Don't sleep on this opportunity. Longer review: I started seeing Nicole in March of 2017 when I saw her post on Instagram (@artofthefemalebody) about having a PMS-free menstruation and how food direct correlates to women's health. I never knew fatigue, cramps, sweats, and acne could be removed from my lifestyle. Consultation was free, so you know I went! After leaving her office, I remember feeling emotionally relieved and deeply thankful for going out of my comfort zone to talk to her. I was thankful to finally feel understood by a woman and yet that was my first time meeting her. Up until that point I felt misunderstood and didn't know where to go for help. A few months earlier my doctor prescribed me with medication for acne that was involuntarily making me dizzy which prevented me from exercising. This along with wanting to learn about nutrition is what led me to her door. 6 months later: I am medication free, I actually eat breakfast, I have over 30 recipes for breakfast/lunch/dinner, I feel more balanced (and most importantly I know how to balance myself out when my life/schedule changes abruptly), and I am furthering my knowledge about hormonal cyclical cycle and food. Most importantly, Nicole has helped me focus on myself and personal development as I transition into my late 20's. I have learned to trust myself and to take better care of my physical, mental, and emotional well-being. I have am loving who I am and she helped me see just how beautiful being a woman can be. She has provided me with resources, links, book recommendations, product recommendations, and amazing information based on my goals. I recommend people to her everyday! I support what she is doing. Nicole is a phenomenal woman. I hope this review has been helpful.
