I don’t know about you, but I get tired of being asked to complete a survey every time I buy a product or use a service. Hence, I don’t normally ask clients for feedback. So it’s all the more satisfying when I receive unsolicited testimonials like these:
“I picked the right nutritionist for me. You have been the perfect mix of science, love and warmth.”
Janey – Bristol
“Before I approached you in my beginning, I undertook a lot of research on the internet of who to use as a practitioner. I have always been into my nutrition and herbs, since a young girl I have had interest in the area. I have used nutritional support on and off for years but for energy issues, I was living in London at the time and I had a lot of companies to choose from. But I knew cancer was a specialist area. Your website material and narrative spoke to me more than other practitioners I found. Little did I know you were the leading practitioner in the field! I feel you engage with people on a level that makes them feel normal and that there are no such things as silly questions. I also think you understand the real world of how busy people live. Thank you for everything you have helped me Dawn. I have learnt a lot from you through my own journey and feel better armed to keep the cancer away.”
Julie – Beaconsfield
“You made a great difference to my life and my understanding of cancer and nutrition, and helped me make key decisions. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
Alex – London
“Dawn, I found our meetings inspirational and full of hope. I came to you following a diagnosis of significant breast cancer with spread to the lymph nodes, and felt that your own experience coupled with your sense of compassion and empathy helped me enormously. You are able to take a view of the whole person rather than a collection of symptoms and I came away feeling that I could do many things to help promote a positive outcome.”
Frances – Tunbridge Wells
“I want to thank you so very much for your guidance over the past couple of years. You have literally been a lifeline for me.”
Caroline – Narberth
“Dawn and I were introduced in 2016 when I was told my cancer had spread and I was now classed as stage 4, and the nutritionist I had been working with recommended Dawn. Initially, I spent the day with Dawn understanding the nutrition my body needed, and then over the years of treatment, I have consulted with her as I needed. When I reached the stage where all treatment options had been exhausted – and I had reacted badly to the last round of immunotherapy I knew enough to consult with Dawn and welcome this change in direction. At this point in my recovery, I came to realise that even the consultant.- no matter how experienced, had no better idea than me on what to do next. I opted to eat well, walk more and invested in a whole range of well-being treatments until I felt well, even normal.I haven’t looked back, and whilst it makes me one of the lucky ones that makes light of the role eating well, maintaining a positive mindset (with the help of hypnotherapy) played in supporting conventional medicine. I am very tuned in to my body’s needs, and ‘know’ when I need to change something or where the boundaries are. I still work hard at my well being and have regular scans to confirm I remain stable.”
Sue – Ware
“All of your literature – your meal plan, your supplement plan, your website etc, are so beautifully designed and put together. And they also exude a real warmth and sense of thoughtfulness. They must have taken a long time to get right, but having worked with quite a few people in the health industry, I can tell you that it makes a HUGE difference.”
Charlotte – London
“Some really good news today. Went to see the oncologist who was just amazed as my tumour marker has dropped substantially and my liver function has improved dramatically too despite being on the palbo and going to Portugal and enjoying myself. The nurses were amazed at how much weight I have lost as well. So thank you!”
Sandra – London
“After my diagnosis of breast cancer, I bought [a well-known nutritionist]’s cook book and tried to help myself – but there were so many unfamiliar ingredients and it felt too difficult. Coming to see you showed me that you can get well with normal food. It’s such a simple message and it has made it so much easier than I expected.”
Jo – Manchester
“Just to let you know that my blood results were excellent yesterday with my liver function coming back to normal for the first time in years. The Gamma GT is now in the normal range. My oncologist lowered my dosage of the palbociclibib which has enabled my white blood cells and neutrophils to improve, while the tumour marker continues to go lower. All I can say is that I am glad to have you on my team.”
Sandra – Again!
“Thank you so much for yesterdays session. I’m more and more grateful to have you in the picture.”
Emily – London
“Just to say thank you so much for today I drove a different woman home to the one I had brought with me; Mel found you completely inspirational.”
Julie – friend (and driver) to cancer patient
“Thanks for my consultation, you are so well informed and offer a wealth of insight……it’s a shame that the NHS isn’t able to offer what you do as I’m sure the UK survival rates for breast cancer would significantly improve.”
Katrina – Romford
“There’s so much I want to thank you for. I genuinely believe you have saved my life – it’s dramatic but true I feel. I would just have continued in a circle of self destruction/sabotage and who knows where it would have ended. You woke me up to what I was doing to myself and I… well you will never really know what a MASSIVE difference you have made to me. I was meant to meet you and I’m so glad I did.”
Jackie – Tonbridge
“Thank you for these brilliant notes and our chat yesterday. I felt hugely empowered by it. Thank you so much for setting me on the right course. I know now that I can be well and recover. Everything you’ve suggested is all very do-able and appeals massively to me. I shall keep you posted about progress.”
Jo – Brighton
“I couldn’t have asked to have met a more empathetic practitioner. You were so kind and everything you said made so much sense to me. Thank you again for all your help and all the notes it’s all so much clearer to me now I feel very confident about my future and my health.”
Elizabeth – Essex
I hope you are ok with me emailing you after such a long time. I would like to pick up on our discussions & book a session with you…I feel that the pure vegan diet (recommended by another practitioner) doesn’t give my body what it needs… My energy is very low (it may be due to recovery from a number of surgeries this year…I’m sleeping so much & assuming my body needs this to heal) over & above the sleep there is still low energy & total wipe out days…when even cleaning my teeth is an effort! My B12 has shown to be low as is my D3 & I’m wondering if this may be due to diet… It would be lovely to talk to you again Dawn…it feels like the ‘right’ time to reconnect with you…& support my health.
Jenn – Birmingham
“I’ve been mulling over my feelings after yesterday’s workshop and thinking a lot about the diet. I used to be a confident headstrong woman, very good at my responsible job and stubborn as hell, if someone told me not to do something I’d immediately want to do the opposite. Cancer seems to have stripped some of that away and when I go into meetings with my consultant I turn into some sort of victim waiting for the next pronouncement to be handed down to me. Yesterday made me think more about that, I’m determined to behave differently next week. Like I said, what have I got to lose by trying something different? So, thank you for reigniting my fighting spirit, it was what I wanted out of yesterday. I’m holding my head higher today and even the 2.5 hour journey home was strangely relaxing.”
Clare – Norfolk
“The best thing about the workshop was the way you explained and made clear the changes I was instinctively trying to find.”
Janette – High Wycombe
“Thank you so much for your support and patience over these past few months as I battle to overcome the inner issues that challenge me. I am in absolute awe of your knowledge, skills – and pure gift, and have loved working with you.”
Sue – Dartford
“Your help and support this year has been amazing. I miss our chats! Sometimes I forget how far I have come. Mentally, I am in a much better place and I have a much better understanding of me. The coaching allowed me to put my energies and enthusiasm into new areas.”
Belinda – London
