“Candice was extremely professional, it was also so easy to talk to her! She really made sure I knew what she was explaining, would bring up diagrams for me to gage my symptoms from. Just in the first meeting we had, she had a huge inkling of what was going on with me. I immediately made changes and when we met again a week later my symptoms had changed almost immediately. Candice is amazing at what she does, but most of all, she truly cares about your health. It was very clear. I would highly recommend her as your new dietitian, 100%!”

I had a wonderful experience with Candice at Firstline Nutrition. She is very thorough and makes sure that she understands the full context of your symptoms before making suggestions. Candice really takes the time to talk with you about your goals and is a great resource to help weed through the noise that can come with nutrition guidance, hacks and habits, thus, ensuring that your plan aligns with your health and lifestyle needs. I most appreciate her ability to create a judgment free space because she understands that everyone's individual needs are unique to them. If you're looking for individualized, professional, evidence based nutrition education, Candice is your gal! Five stars, highly recommend!

Candice was really helpful. Unfortunately there was an insurance issue on my end, so we were unable to continue. However, she was really professional and seemed to be knowledgeable on the subject.
I highly recommend meeting with her.

Working with Candice has been such a game changer. She’s down-to-earth, supportive, and makes everything about nutrition feel simple and doable. She’s caring and kind, fun to talk to, and always keeps it real—which makes working toward my goals feel achievable instead of overwhelming. She helps me get out of my own way, stay focused, and actually notice the progress I’m making.
And honestly, her food ideas, easy recipes, and the already-prepared treats she shares are lifesavers—they make staying on track feel fun, not stressful.
I’m so grateful for her guidance and encouragement. Highly recommend!

It is a pleasure working alongside Candice. I also appreciate her efforts in providing reading materials to help me further understand the overall process! She has a genuine passion for helping seek the success of others and it has helped give me comfort and confidence with this process and journey that used to make me feel uncomfortable. Highly recommend!!!

Candice is technically a RDN, but I give her the title Myth Buster. When someone at work said that tequila was a healthy alcohol, we discussed why it was not (bummer) and she sent me a follow up podcast about the topic. When hydrogen water bottles were the rage, turns out there is not a lot of scientific evidence supporting the benefits (yet!?!?). When I feared carbs, she helped me understand why I need them (yay!). She has never told me NOT to eat something and instead she helped me understand the good and bad consequences of my choices.
As I went through chemo she introduced me to new hydration product options that I still use. And the Aloha protein bars that she recommended are like a dessert!
The best thing about working with Candice though (beside that my insurance the entire cost) is that you can make your appointment about whatever you want. Once we spent an appointment picking out best choices for me at restaurants I go to. She has so much knowledge to share with you!

I was referred to Candice by a previous acquaintance due to her expertise in addressing the specific issues I was experiencing. Our meetings were characterized by a supportive and informative atmosphere. Candice actively listened to my concerns and provided comprehensive explanations regarding various approaches to alleviate my symptoms. She suggested several supplements that proved highly effective while also being mindful of budget considerations, assisting me with cost analysis. After a couple of months of working together, I have noticed a significant improvement in my health and now possess the necessary tools and resources to manage my well-being more effectively.

I've had 3 visits with Candice and I couldn't be happier! As someone whose weight has had a tendency to yo-yo in the past, in this short time, I've gained confidence in my ability to succeed with her assistance. I've learned that I don't have to be restrictive and I can indulge occasionally without feeling guilty as long as I plan ahead. We've explored physical hungar vs emotional hungar and this has allowed me to make better choices when I'm feeling stressed, anxious, or bored. I know that my emotional eating is ultimately why I haven't been able to maintain a healthy weight.
Candice is professional, thorough, empathetic and a great listener! We set goals together and with her knowledge and expertise, I feel they're 100% attainable. While I know this won't always be easy, the support Candice offers will give me the motivation to keep moving forward on my journey to a healthier lifestyle.
If you're struggling with weight loss and need a solution, reach out to Candice. She's amazing!

I worked with Candice, a registered dietitian. She listened to my personal concerns and discussed them with me. Together we set up a plan that worked for me! She made suggestions of food substitutions to make and products to try. All her ideas worked for me. I appreciated the suggestions. Each time we talked I knew I had her total attention. She really wanted to help me, and she did!
Candice is very friendly and easy to talk with. Prompt with her appointment times. I’m glad I met and worked with her.

Whether it's choosing the right foods, managing symptoms, or creating a sustainable fitness plan, Candice offers compassionate support and real advice. Thanks to her help, I feel more in control of my health and much more confident in the choices I'm making. She is the best!!

I meet with Candice via zoom. She has been the best addition to my get healthy program. Candice dives into my health journey. She ask to get real numbers by starting with blood tests, which is key. She has so many suggestions and recommendations.
