“Kim is the best! She is so nice. She is funny and always believed in me. She has done her ‘happy dance’ twice for me! Kim makes it fun and gets super excited. Don’t be afraid to go to Kim’s office, she is super nice and makes it really fun. I’ve never been bored! I like going to see her to talk about new foods because she makes it fun. You should not be scared to see her because she is really kind.” - Hannah B, 9 years old

"We first met Ms. Lovely in a discharge meeting when our daughter was still inpatient in the NICU. She's helped us tremendously with, nutrition, constipation and so much moral support. I realized very quickly that I can't do this complex journey without her. Our daughter is now almost 9 years old. She may be considered complex but we can thank Ms. Lovely for helping us to keep her on a healthy path".

"My son has had feeding issues since birth and until Kim came into our lives we were making zero progress despite seeing several specialists. Within weeks of meeting Kim my son was EATING which he hadn’t done for the previous 9 months! She developed a feeding plan that worked for us and he has made so much progress in a short time it is incredible. Kim is also kind and compassionate and really takes the time during our appointments to evaluate my son and answers all of my (many, many) questions. We are very grateful for her help and highly recommend seeing her if you or a loved one are experiencing feeding issues". Julie F
"Kim has been my son’s dietitian (and now mine!) for about ten years and she has always been compassionate, caring, and knowledgeable no matter what we’ve been dealing with. I look forward to many many more years with her as part of our healthcare team! "
