What Clients Are Saying
My blood pressure was high but has been in the 120’s/70 range now for a couple of weeks, I even saw 119/68 the other day. It’s amazing to me how changing my diet has benefited me. My sister recently told me how nice my skin looks, (I have noticed that, too), and my eczema on my ankle is finally shrinking and clearing up after being there for 6 years straight. – DQ
I’m happy to say that my gastroenterologist was thrilled with the findings on my recent biannual colonoscopy (I have IBD)! Almost no inflammation visible! — MW
“Jumpstart Your Health for Cancer Survivors” really helped me reset and focus on a healthy lifestyle. Dr. Musial provided nutrition information all geared to life as a cancer survivor. The recipes, cooking tips, and interactive cooking demos made me realize that eating a whole food, plant-based diet can be both easy and delicious. Since doing the program 5 months ago, I have lost 25 pounds and feel great. — TT
“Even though I live in Virginia, I heard Dr. Sandy on a podcast and decided to do the Jumpstart program. I’ve been mostly plant-based for 3 years and still learned so much. The recipes are wonderful and I learned about smoked olives from Dr. Sandy (they add an amazing flavor to homemade hummus). But I digress … the class was informative and fun and while I wish I was up in Providence, I would do the program again from afar. It was so nice being in the company of others who just want to be healthier!!!”
— Tracy S
“I did not think the Jumpstart program would work but as my last-ditch effort, I was hoping it would work. Otherwise, I would have to join fat America and medicate myself with prescription pills to uncomfortably stay alive. Unbelievably the results I had been trying to reach for over two years were met in just a few short weeks: a drop in bad cholesterol, a rise in good cholesterol, a decrease in my inflammatory markers, weight loss amongst many other health benefits.
I finally understand what it means to eat to live and not live to eat. Highly recommend The Plant Docs - Everyone needs to know about them! With my super supportive husband, we will continue this lifestyle.”
— Kelly P
“My numbers have never looked this good. I thought I was stuck with a genetically high cholesterol and ever-increasing insulin resistant problem. At least that’s what I heard from my doctor. Plant Docs Jumpstart Your Health! works” — DM
“Don’t assume as you age, you need more and more medications for blood pressure, cholesterol, indigestion, diabetes, or inflammation. With this type of eating, you have so much better control of your health. It’s amazing to see the difference before and after.” — JR
“Several months ago, I signed up for the Plant Docs Jumpstart Program… After 3 months of eating a Plant Based diet, I have lost weight by just eating good food (no measuring or calculating points). My blood pressure is lower so that I have been able to stop a medication. My skin is better, my energy is better, and I am happy” — LH
Since I’ve started Plant Docs, I barely have my typical, constant sugar cravings. I am NOW always full and satisfied from my meals and never think about snacking throughout the day.” — AV

“I learned a lot about nutrition, and I also felt very heard and honored during our session. To me, you represent what medicine could and should be. What an inspiration! Thank you for the guidance, inspiration and support.”
— S. P.
“I am thrilled with the result of the class. In just 4 weeks, I lowered both my overall cholesterol and my LDL. I have more energy and feel better overall on a Whole Foods, plant-based diet and plan on continuing eating this way. The cooking tips and recipes were easy and healthy!”
— Sara L.
“I loved the Jumpstart program. It was so good to have the Plantdocs explain to us why these WFPB choices make sense. They were able to provide information about why this was good for our health and practical information that made it easy and delicious. We learned how to create staples to keep in the refrigerator so that we could always have meals on hand without much preparation AND delicious recipes that I’ve made over and over again. This is easier than you think. I felt better in such a short time and saw results right away—weight loss, improved energy, lower blood pressure. I feel better! That’s motivating! The classes were fun and informative and the doctors are always available to answer questions and support us through. Thank you Plant Docs!”
— Anonymous
“I’m so grateful to you for the Jumpstart Program. I've been a vegetarian for decades, but this is my first long-term experience completely eliminating dairy and eggs. Eating consistently WFPB has made a big positive difference in how I feel, and the amount of energy I have. I credit you, the other Plant Docs, and this program with providing the really targeted education and support that have made the shift not only possible, but empowering and enjoyable.”
— Martha S.
“Exactly what I needed. I received direction, care, and supportive feedback in an individual and group setting. Honestly, a great team! Highly recommend this program. Plant food helps support mind, body wellness, and save the planet.”
— Sonia G.
