Kathy was proactive in identifying my prediabetes and in getting me into treatment immediately with lifestyle changes initially and with physician referrals when necessary. She has gone above and beyond what would normally be expected of a "mere" nutritionist in dealing with medications, treatments, lab interpretations and her proactive treatment that was years ahead of the physicians my insurance was paying.
