I have dealt with chronic gastrointestinal issues for about 8 years. In that time, through my own research and advice from various GI doctors, I tried and tested various diets and meds that provided only temporary relief. Not only did my symptoms negatively impact my relationship with food, but they also affected my social life as I could no longer eat out or travel without worrying about what I could eat. Enter Niki. After working with her, I was able to narrow down the specific foods that trigger symptoms and rather than tell me to flat out avoid those foods, she has empowered me with several relief tools that allow me to still enjoy those foods and recover more quickly should I experience any symptoms. Beyond helping fortify my gut, she has also helped me build mental resiliency. These issues aren’t foreign to her—she has lived them—which helped me feel seen and understood in a way no doctor I’ve seen for this has made me feel. I highly recommend Niki to anyone navigating the journey of healing their gut and enjoying food in all of its variety.
