In few months my husband was able to finally achieve his goal weight that he's been trying to reach for years. I'm still working on my weight-loss journey, but I'm already impressed with the results so far. We're so thankful for the care, attention and personal approach and professionalism of Dr.Vadim Surikov, as the weight loss effects people hormonally and mentally. A diet is not always the solution-a complex approach is needed instead. Thanks to Dr.Surikov, we were able to find answers to years of unsuccessful attempts, balance of body and personalized program that focused to achieving the results without stressing the body.

I originally contacted New York City Nutrition because my digestion had become unpredictable. I was…read moredealing with bloating, heartburn, occasional diarrhea, and the uncomfortable feeling that certain foods were affecting me even though I could not identify a clear pattern. I had already tried making random changes on my own, but I was mostly reacting to symptoms rather than understanding what might be contributing to them. What impressed me most was that the gut health consultation did not feel like a generic appointment where someone simply tells you to stop eating gluten, dairy, sugar, and everything else you enjoy. My dietitian took the time to listen to my history, my normal eating habits, the types of packaged foods I bought, and the symptoms I noticed after certain meals. I felt heard rather than judged. The explanations were also practical and easy to understand. Instead of overwhelming me with medical language, she helped me look at the relationship between ingredients, portions, eating patterns, and digestive symptoms. The recommendations were broken into manageable habits that I could actually follow in normal life. I did not feel as though I had been handed a restrictive diet that would be impossible to maintain while working, traveling, eating out, or spending time with other people. One of the biggest lessons for me involved protein bars and foods marketed as "zero sugar." I used to see zero sugar on the front of a package and automatically assume it was the healthier choice. I never stopped to ask how something could taste extremely sweet while supposedly containing no sugar. My dietitian encouraged me to turn the package around and read the complete ingredient list, not only the marketing claims on the front. I learned that many sweet zero-sugar snacks rely on sugar alcohols or intense sweeteners. These ingredients are not automatically harmful to everyone, but certain sugar alcohols can be difficult for some people to digest and may contribute to bloating, gas, cramping, or loose stools. In my own case, some of the bars I was eating appeared to make my heartburn and diarrhea worse. That conversation completely changed how I shop. I now look at the source of the sweetness, the length of the ingredient list, the amount of fiber, and the balance between protein, carbohydrates, and fat. I also understand that "zero sugar" and "zero added sugar" are not the same thing. A food can contain naturally occurring sugar from fruit without having refined sugar or sweeteners added to it. One example of how I now apply those principles is PROTABAR. It was recommended to me and it's a great example of a protein snack which label reflects many of the things I was taught to look for. It contains four recognizable ingredients: dates, egg whites, hazelnuts, and cocoa. One 50-gram bar has 210 calories, 15 grams of protein, 24 grams of carbohydrates, 5 grams of fiber, and 9 grams of fat. It contains 13 grams of total sugar from its ingredients, primarily the dates, but zero grams of added sugar. For me, that is a much more honest and balanced approach than making a bar extremely sweet with sugar alcohols just so the package can advertise zero sugar. The egg whites provide protein, the dates provide carbohydrates and natural sweetness, the hazelnuts provide fat and texture, and the bar contains enough fiber to make it feel like a substantial snack. Of course, no single snack is automatically right for every person or every digestive condition, but it is one of the packaged options that fits the label-reading rules I now follow. Since applying the simple habits I learned here, my gut has gradually been stabilizing. I pay more attention to how I eat, not only what I eat. I track patterns instead of panicking after one uncomfortable meal, and I make more informed choices when comparing packaged foods. I also feel less anxious around food because I am no longer dividing everything into "good" and "bad" based on a claim printed on the front of a package. The process does require patience. Digestive issues do not necessarily disappear after one appointment or one dietary change. However, I appreciated that the approach was realistic, personalized, and focused on sustainable habits rather than quick promises. I left with a clearer understanding of my own body and practical tools I can continue using. For anyone who feels confused by bloating, irregular digestion, food labels, or conflicting nutrition advice, New York City Nutrition is worth considering. The experience helped me move away from marketing claims and toward simpler, more thoughtful food choices. That education has been just as valuable to me as the improvement in my symptoms.

I have been on a health journey for the past few years, but decided to see Lorraine as my…read morenutritionist because I was getting tired of the same routine and falling into extreme eating habits. I have been with Lorraine for almost a month now and can safely say that she has completely changed my life and point of view on food. She provides such a comfortable and safe environment to talk about not just food, but my cognitive and mental outlook on my life. Upon my consultation, she made sure to note all aspects of my health and past eating habits, and created a delicious customized meal plan based on my preferences, as I am primarily plant based. These plans also integrate meal prep into them, which has reduced my snacking tendencies, as I can just grab my prepped meals from the fridge. I have fallen in love with cooking at home again and get excited about each meal as they are all so diverse and completely satiate me. It's crazy how quickly my taste preferences have changed and crave her recipes. The 3-month plan I opted for includes weekly check-ins, where Lorraine doesn't mention calories or weight every time, but more of how I am feeling mentally based on the foods I am eating. She is also sure to educate me on certain foods to avoid or gravitate towards which can positively affect my lifestyle. I look forward to seeing her each week because she celebrates every small victory with me. I could not recommend anyone else- thank you Lorraine!!!

Nine years later, I reached out again in Feb 2020 to reset after a couple of years of deprioritizing my health. Seeing Nikki again was like riding a bike - she was as warm, understanding, and supportive as ever. She created a very thorough shopping list with a ton of new brands and delicious recipe options that I wouldn't have known otherwise. Nikki made food shopping and cooking FUN because I could feel and taste the difference of what I was putting in my body. And all super easy to find and make!! Fast forward to COVID-19. I was lucky enough to start doing the work a month before the world changed. By then, I was already used to making better food choices for me and having Nikki by my side. While a lot of people were eating through their anxieties, Nikki's support helped me have the semblance of agency by making the most nourishing and simple meals. While I don't weigh myself, I'm definitely thinner and my clothes fit looser. And I feel amazing all around. More than that, Nikki's guidance is holistic. She not only focuses on the food, but also the mental and emotional. Nikki probes deep to help me get in touch with my feelings and then releasing them. She is the real deal and an amazing cheerleader - during the good and the bad! Now getting down to business. Nikki is super responsive (almost at lightning speed) and she's cost conscious. There's a stigma about eating healthy being expensive, but Nikki finds you options and promo codes galore. Seeing her is an investment in your health, and you learn how to maximize it! Call her. Right now. You'll gain a better appreciation for your health and strength, as well as a true friend and champion.

I was still able to take the medicine during my appointment, and Dr. Kostant made the time for me to complete my procedure the same day. I was able to use laughing gas and local anesthesia for my procedure, which was definitely an interesting experience.

The doctor that I did see here was only in the room with me for 5 minutes, so they must have a booming practice here. I made an appointment at Mount Sinai Comprehensive center because there wait was only a month. The location is a little less convenient, but I'm not going to wait 5 months to be seen for a health issue.

What really tripped me up was her cancellation policy. I had to pre-pay for my time with her and when we weren't connecting and I didn't think I had much more to learn from her, I still had to pay for the two months of sessions I no longer wanted to attend. It's her policy and that's fine, it just really didn't work out for me and I would have loved some recourse for the situation I found myself in.

How to focus on what it was that my body and mind really needed. How to make food meaningful to myself again.
