What Jonah and Joanne’s Patients Are Saying

“Jonah (and Soolman Nutrition) should be at the top of your list”

“As a practitioner in a field that requires sensitivity, empathy, and caring, Jonah stands out from the rest. He is an extremely effective communicator, and demonstrates a strong knowledge of his work. He listens carefully and thoroughly, and is comfortable to be around, even in challenging conversations. He possesses a seemingly natural ability to truly put people at ease. Jonah seems passionate about what he does, and appears to do what he does for the human factor – it feels as though he authentically enjoys helping people, and it’s incredibly apparent when you speak with him. If you’re looking for a caring dietitian who will hear every last one of your nutrition concerns, needs, and interests, and work with you to accomplish your goals, Jonah (and Soolman Nutrition) should be at the top of your list.” – anonymous, Pepperell, MA

“She has helped me tremendously in the early stages of recovery from an eating disorder.”

“I cannot begin to say enough positive things about Joanne. She has helped me tremendously in the early stages of recovery from an eating disorder [ED], and motivates me to continue progressing, constantly encouraging me to move past my comfort zone. I have contacted her numerous times via e-mail/phone when I was having an “ED” moment, and she has always taken the time to talk me through my thoughts and create a plan of action. Her kind, compassionate manner makes working with Joanne very enjoyable in an uncomfortable/unenjoyable state of being. I always look forward to our weekly visits, and would highly recommend her to anybody struggling with this debilitating disease.” – 26-year-old female, Boston, MA

“Jonah’s expertise and guidance has completely changed my life.”

“Jonah’s expertise and guidance has completely changed my life. My relationship with food has improved dramatically. He is an incredible listener and I never felt judged for the thoughts or feelings I expressed during our sessions. He was able to identify my anxieties about food, while building my confidence at the same time. Every session ended with me feeling stronger and more sure of myself. If I had a question or concern in between sessions, I emailed him and he responded immediately. Jonah has a wealth of knowledge and provided me with all the tools I needed to succeed.” – 32-year-old female, Wellesley, MA

“It’s not only about the nutrition and exercise, but about what works for me in my life.”

“Jonah really works to make sure the solutions we come up with will work for me”

“I have been working with Jonah for some time.  The sessions are helpful, motivating, and educational.  Most of all, they are full of good information that I can incorporate into my everyday life.  Jonah really works to make sure the solutions we come up with will work for me.  He is willing to adjust the plan so that it is something that I will follow and stick with.  While I now know that nutrition and weight loss are for life and not simply a diet, I am glad to have him working with me and coaching me.  He is really responsive; if I have questions, I can email him and not have to wait until my next appointment and will get a quick response.  Jonah has turned out to be a great coach.” – 53-year-old male, Holliston, MA
