Our Team - Our Approach

I began working with Jessica at Kidney RD because I was diagnosed with CKD and was confused about what I should and should not eat. I also had IBS issues. I had great results working with Jessica. She is kind, sensitive, and caring. She was so willing to answer all my questions and provide me with eating plans and delicious recipes. Through Kidney RD recommended tests, dietary changes, and supplements not only has my GFR improved, my IBS symptoms have too, and I continue to feel better all the time. Many thanks to Jessica at Kidney RD!

I thought you would like to see my kidney GFR readings from when I was first diagnosed with kidney disease in 2014.....and what they are now. I came to see you on August 29, 2016, and my husband and I are both following your advice. I feel so much better, and especially after the 2 iron infusions for my unspecified iron anemia.....which improved my kidney function as well. In addition, ALL of my lab work came out normal as well. My kidney doctor released me at my last appointment on November 16th!! Thanks for your professional help!

It's been several years since I had my appt with Jessianna and I'm still doing great. When I get ice cubes out of the freezer at work and see all of the packaged foods my co-workers have stocked in there, all I see is kidney damaging phosphates…….not the food pictured on the boxes. I have totally changed my way of eating. I am 62, and except for some arthritis , feel the best I ever have!! Still have diabetes and kidney disease, but have learned to embrace a healthier way of life!

Jess was able to affirm that what I was doing on my own was basically correct and offer some creative alternatives to make it better. Whether you are a new CKD'er or a seasoned kidney patient in a quandary about what you can actually eat, Jess can provide a diet tune-up or point you in the right direction to get started to help you help yourself. Most CKD patients are told to see a renal dietitian and Jess is a good one!

“Navin and I were just trying to improve our dietary habits but through her expertise, we have learned to manage kidney disease thanks to her.  Our feedback for her is extremely positive and wish her all the best. “

After 4.5 months on the program, my CKD is stable and my GRF went from 36 to 40. I no longer have arthritis pain in my knees, my skin is clear, I'm feeling physically and mentally great AND I no longer need to take my diabetes medicine. I am beyond pleased at what this program did for me.
