Joy was excellent. She explained everything in detail in a way that I can understand and make it work for me. Nutrition wise, I would recommend her to anybody. Even just the whole ambience and atmosphere of her made me feel so comfortable and engaged in trying to do the right thing to decrease my blood sugar.
So It was super awesome to work with, during my recent appointment, she was great at talking with us about various things, and so I had a moment to share my concerns, she provided me feedback, and it was probably one of the best appointment that I had, for the visit. Thank you so much.
Great experience!
This was my first experience using tele health and it was a pleasant experience even with the video glitches. Joy was really patient in answering all the questions and she gave lots of informative handouts. She also explained everything clearly, so it's easy to understand.
Really knowledgeable and helpful.
