"Working with Elienne over the past few months has been an absolute pleasure. She is very knowledgeable, professional and is always encouraging. The eating plan she created for me was detailed and easy to follow. I do not feel restricted in my eating, and I thoroughly enjoy the food on the plan.
Elienne has taught me important skills around food choices and meal preparation, and with her help I have been able to make healthy lifestyle changes which I will maintain well into my future. Overall this journey has been a highly positive one." - J.H

"Being diabetic my wife and I have visited several dieticians over the years, with varying degrees of success. Elienne Horwitz’ caring, compassionate approach is by far the best we’ve encountered. We both lost weight and I have been able to drastically reduce my insulin." - H.B.
