Charlotte B

Irritable bowel syndrome

"I am most grateful for Haleigh’s knowledge in helping to reduce symptoms in my digestive track and to help determine what to watch as triggers. I appreciate her scientific backed advice to help me feel confident going forward with my diet and health choices."

Isabel M

Crohn's disease

"Making the decision to work with Romanwell and make an investment in my long-term health and well-being is the best decision I have made and one I will cherish. My dietitian was not only friendly and relatable, but professional and supports her advice with scientific research."

Tina L

Ulcerative colitis

"I went from running to the bathroom 12-15 times a day, losing blood, and skipping meals from fatigue or fear of losing control of symptoms, and now I'm feeling confident in my ability to plan meals for myself, eat more, stress less, and have 1-3 solid BMs/day"

Deborah D

Crohn's disease

"While working with my nutritionist, in conjunction with medication, I have been able to achieve remission, and then was able to become pregnant! I am so thankful to her for helping guide me on this path towards a healthier lifestyle and allowing me to achieve my goals! "

Amanda W

Inflammatory bowel disease

"If you're on the fence or not sure about taking the leap, absolutely do it. In my 8 years of being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, working with Romanwell was the best care decision that I've made...now, I'm confident, I feel good, and I have energy."

Michael O.

Ulcerative colitis

"My mood and energy have improved tremendously. I am now in remission after 4 years and I feel amazing. I now leave my home with confidence, not worried about where the next restroom will be. I even workout 6 times a week."

Rose M

Ulcerative colitis

"The investment in your health is so beyond worth it and is one of the best decisions I’ve made. I’ve since recommended Romanwell to friends who have IBD and am already planning on working with my nutritionist again to help me transition during a major move across the country."

James C

Ulcerative colitis

"Biggest thing was the feeling of an educated and experienced work partner who is genuinely engaged and invested in the outcome. I never felt like just another patient ushered in and shuffled out...it always felt as though I was the only person on her agenda."

Catherine B

Inflammatory bowel disease

"Working with my dietitian changed my life. I can't put into words how much I appreciate her and her knowledge. I will use the information and tips she gave me for the rest of my life. Speaking of life, she gave me my life back! I finally feel like me again..."

Rebecca W

Ulcerative colitis

"I went from having 5-10 loose bowel movements a day several times with urgency to having two or three a day with no urgency. I had blood in all my stools and now I have had no bleeding for several months, the longest I have gone with no blood in almost two years."

Denise B
