Here's how it works
Step 1
We’ll get to know each other in a complementary consult
We take the time to get to know you and your health history, and understand what’s going well and where you’re looking for support. If we think we can help, we’ll recommend one of our 3- or 6-month programs to hep you reach your health goals.
Step 2
Together, we’ll make a plan that sticks
When we start working together, we'll take a comprehensive look at your diet, supplements, medical history, labs, and symptoms. We'll talk about your energy, sleep, stress, and relationship with food, and work together to develop a plan to reach your personal goals.
Step 3
We’ll celebrate progress toward your goals
We’ll meet weekly throughout the program to review progress towards your goals and make adjustments when needed. Between appointments, you’ll have access to your dietitian anytime to answer questions or share updates as they come up.
Step 4
You’ll leave ready to live your life confidently with PSC
Our goal is to equip you with the tools you need to feel confident in managing your condition. By the end of the program, you’ll be ready to manage any obstacle ulcerative PSC throws your way.

"I would wholeheartedly recommend Romanwell to anyone, at any stage of their IBD journey. My dietician was extremely knowledgeable, empathetic and encouraging and I don’t know if I would be at the level of health I am now, without her help."

"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"
