"Getting Jessica to gain weight has been a constant struggle. Her diagnosis of Failure to Thrive in the absence of any other medical problems has caused my husband and I much embarrassment because so many people and medical professionals felt it was our fault. Your compassionate and empathetic manner helped us feel at ease and comfortable in our decision to work with you, and by taking your suggestions we have been able to get Jessica to gain 10 pounds in 6 months, putting her on the growth chart for the first time since she was 2. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
