Client Testimonials

I reached out to Rachel after suffering from stomach pain for several years. I had seen several medical specialists and tried to self-manage the issue with disappointing results. When I started meeting with Rachel, I immediately appreciated her comprehensive approach to nutrition and wellness. Learning that it's not just about what you eat, but how and when you eat and assessing your relationship to food was enlightening for me. Through different testing and trial phases, we discovered that I have a gluten sensitivity, and by reducing my intake of gluten and practicing stress relieving techniques, I could better manage my stomach pain. I learned so much about nutrition and overall health, my time with Rachel was absolutely worth the investment!

I reached out because I suffered from anxiety, GERD, weight gain, occasional IBS & low energy. I was working on improving my stress & wanted to heal from within & achieve a balanced lifestyle. Rachel understood what I was going through & was not only very knowledgeable but also relatable. Between testing the bacteria in my gut, providing a full panel that I could discuss with my Dr, coming up with a supplement & food regimen & biweekly follow ups…. After 3 months, my GERD is non existent & I haven’t had to take Nexium in over a year. My anxiety & sleep has also improved tremendously & I couldn’t be any more happier! I’m an overall healthy person but enjoy indulging & having fun with my family & friends. Feeling that I couldn’t enjoy my life due to acid reflux was miserable & I now have control over my body thanks to Rachel! She’s the best & changed my life!

For years (YEARS), I ignored what I thought was a food allergy. I would have thick mucus after many meals and have to spit up to feel like I wasn’t choking. It had progressed to where I would cough myself into throwing up almost everyday. I was finally ready for a solution and I could not be happier that I chose to go with Rachel! The more “traditional” route ended with a prescription that had scary side effects (early onset osteoporosis) and no consultation at all about healthy eating. With Rachel, I learned so much about my eating habits, what healthy eating looked like, and why I was feeling the way I was. Rachel also has this wonderful way of talking to you about food and eating without judgment or condescension. Most importantly, I can now live SYMPTOM FREE with only minor adjustments to my life. It’s been incredible. I am so grateful for how I feel daily. Thank you, Rachel!

My reflux is gone, I have lost 26 lbs. and eat differently now- much more healthy! I am well on the way to healing and resetting my gut.

-Annette, 66

I reached out to Rachel as she had posted specifically about helping clients with acid reflux problems- which I had a huge problem with (for over 10 years)! I had tried several suggestions and diets I found online and I had yet to find a solution that actually worked. Prior to meeting with Rachel I wasn't able to eat a lot of pretty simple foods, and knowing what would cause reflux was always a guessing game. It prevented me from enjoying a lot of amazing foods, and eating what I wanted to eat, when it was convenient. I didn't have any major hesitations for working with Rachel as I had tried everything before!

Since working with Rachel I can confidently say the difference is night and day. We've added a lot of mindful eating practices and work to consistently add more nutritious food to my diet, but above all, I have zero acid reflux! I don't have to avoid certain foods and I love that I can enjoy "what everyone else is having" when I'm with my family. It's pretty nice to not get anxiety about food choices anymore! All in all, I just wish I had started working with Rachel sooner. She's an absolute joy to work with, easy to talk to, and she helped cure the acid reflux problem I had been battling for 10+ years. Thanks, Rachel!

Rachel was incredibly helpful to me. First and foremost, I felt bloated after most meals, but was never sure why; it happened no matter what I ate. Subsequently, I'd limit my meals to only a small amount of food, concerned about the after effects. Rachel was able to get to the root of my issues with the G-Map Test, which provided an abundance of information on what was going on in my gut. It seems that I wasn't as healthy as I thought I was. Rachel recommended supplements during each of the 3 Phases I worked with her through. I felt better almost immediately. We "met" every 2-3 weeks, and each time was informative. One of the most important lessons I learned from Rachel was to eat slower at each meal, to actually put my fork down after each bite and to chew slowly and fully, and to eat sitting down! What a difference that has made for me - I actually enjoy/savor my meals now, and it's worth waking 10 minutes earlier to do so with breakfast. I've found that I'm satiated much longer than when I was scarfing-down my meals. I've also lost a few pounds, not my goal while working with Rachel, but a nice side-effect. She's got "gut health" down to the science that it is. I can sum up working with Rachel by saying that you don't realize how badly you felt until you begin to feel well! Thank you, Rachel!

My experience with Rachel has been excellent. Before I started working with her, I would get a bloated stomach once a week or so. I would also get abdominal pains that I had no idea where they were coming from. The pains were so bad I went to the hospital on more than one occasion and have seen several doctors, but never found them to be that helpful. Rachel worked with me to look at my diet and cut out certain foods that could be causing inflammation. She then recommended I do a gut health supplement protocol over a three month period. It’s been six months since we started working together and I have not had a stomach incident since. I also don’t get bloated like I used to. On top of all of this, Rachel is a patient, understanding nutritionist who was willing to work with me on foods I liked and figuring out how to still enjoy eating and not feeling like I was just depriving myself. Thanks so much, Rachel!

-Taylor, 32

My husband and I needed help with meal planning because we eat the same foods but have opposite weight goals. Rachel put together an incredibly thorough meal plan and we were blown away by the results. Not only was the food delicious, but we noticed a boost in energy after the first day and my bloating went down after the 3rd day. I was extremely satisfied with the recipes and variety of foods in Rachel's plan. I had no idea how much my husband and I were UNDER-eating before! 

My favorite part about working with Rachel is how organized she is. Her meal plan came with a full grocery list, easy to follow recipes, eating schedules that supported me and my husband's individual goals, and plenty of tips and tricks to help us stay on track. Many of her recipes have become staples in our kitchen! 

I would recommend Rachel's services to anyone that wants to put their health first but doesn't know where to start. She made the entire process easy and helped improve my relationship with food.

I started working with Rachel because I wanted to optimize my health. I felt that traditional primary care physicians were only concerned with managing symptoms rather than determining root causes of health issues. In the past, I had to advocate with primary care doctors to get an iron test despite having potential symptoms (cold extremities, low energy, weak/brittle nails); then this test didn't even incorporate all components related to iron deficiency. Rachel did a comprehensive intake, discussing all areas of my health/life/etc. She took a collaborative approach, making sure we focused on what I felt was important. She told me about different testing she offers (GI MAP, DUTCH hormones test, micronutrients...) to see what interested me and explained how each test could be helpful. We decided to start with the GI MAP test. Rachel explained the results in practical terms while also providing a wealth of knowledge. I was so impressed with all the information available with these results, far beyond what you'd receive from primary care (for example: the results indicated which antibiotics I have a resistance to, and to what degree). Rachel started me on a protocol of supplements to work on improving my gut health. Rachel also provided a personalized meal plan - tailored to my preferences and complete with a grocery list. I've learned so much throughout this process and feel confident that I'm on a path towards optimal health. Thanks, RAD Nutrition!

After struggling with bloating and constipation for a few years I felt it was time for a change. I contacted Rachel Doyle and she suggested trying a low FODMAP diet which has really helped me with my gut issues so far. As a dietitian, Rachel’s passion for her field, her knowledge and guidance helped me implement effective nutritional changes to feel better. Thanks Rachel!

-Susan, 62

I reached out to Rachel because I noticed some changes in my body, specifically with my menstrual cycle and I couldn’t figure out what had caused them. I saw she offered a hormone testing lab, and I knew obtaining that information could help me. Rachel was fabulous to work with the whole way through. This was the first time I had taken a test like this. The hormone test was quite involved and could be difficult to navigate, but any questions I had throughout the whole process Rachel answered as well as providing tips on what would work best, since she had taken this particular lab before herself. She was very responsive and reassuring! When the results came back, I was nervous 😬 but Rachel helped me process the information and recommended daily lifestyle and diet changes I could incorporate into my routine to help support my hormone health. I’m so happy I reached out, and I’m thrilled with the quality of care and vast level of knowledge Rachel possesses. I’m feeling much more balanced almost a month after receiving my results. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking to improve their wellbeing! She knows what she’s doing 😊
