Initial appointment was great. She throughly went through the outline of what is needed to help me on making a healthier lifestyle. Great listener and I look forward to working with her consistently.

Dr. Baum was a very good listener and had some very good, practical suggestions. Our conversation was very fluid. We discussed what I generally eat and she offered suggestions and modifications. I had been to one previous nutritionist that was too strict and inflexible. Dr. Baum had good advice and she was very educational. I will go back to follow up.

It was great! Going back in about 3 weeks. Thank you.
Verified patient
Limor was utterly useless at best, and extremely triggering at worst. I cannot un-recommend her enough. If you struggle with an eating disorder or have any other health conditions you'd like expert help on, please save your time. 1 ) Her guidance is extremely vague - her so-called "holistic" approach basically involves ignoring the nuances of nutrition or any science-backed arguments and giving lackadaisical, broad answers to any question. 2) She came across as very apathetic - I had to provide conversation topics every time, she never provided proactive guidance or direction. 3) She was condescending towards eating habits that I've found to be helpful personally, and was dismissive towards my lived experiences, which was frankly infuriating. 4) She's very biased; actively dismisses science-backed claims - there were discussions where she admitted certain claims to be scientifically true but said she ignores them because she finds such a lifestyle to be miserable.

I love the fact that she listened. It's one thing to have information its another to share it effectively. She took the times to understand my goals and tailored our session to my needs.

In my first visit I found the front desk staff to be friendly and efficient. Limor was great! She took the time to really get to know me and what my goals are. She really worked with me to come up with a realistic plan that would work with my lifestyle.
Verified patient
Dr. Baum was straightforward, personable, thoughtful. She answered the questions had and helped me make small tweaks to my diet for better health.
Verified patient
I've had not-bad-but-not-great experiences with nutritionists before and I was worried about how this would go. But Limor is sweet, nonjudgmental and knows her stuff. She also was fantastic about providing nutritional advice for my tween daughter.
I am very pleased with my visit to Dr. Baum's office. From the minute I walked in, her receptionist, Melissa, made me feel right at home and explained everything thoroughly. She was very friendly. There seems to be a genuine care and concern in the office, which is very, very refreshing because most times I feel rushed and not listened to at other doctor's offices. Dr. Baum takes the time to learn about you, and what works for your lifestyle in a realistic way, while infusing her knowledge and expertise. She's very nice. I highly recommend!
She is very easy to tak with.
Verified patient
Limor has a great knowledge about food and nutrition. She immediately understood my needs and came up with the best plan for me. I already see the results and its only been a few weeks. Will definitely continue to see her.
Verified patient
Limor was Lovely. I immediately felt at ease with her and was very comfortable talking about personal issues. She was really amazing at tailoring the food/shopping plan specifically to my hectic lifestyle and medical issues.
Verified patient
Limor is amazing! She listened to me, every step of the way and over 8 months of appointments, she truly has changed my life. I am so thankful I found her!
Verified patient
Limit was awesome. She's given me a clear cut plan on what I need to do to gain healthly weight and worked wih me to design a plan that is both appropriate for my health concerns and realistic for my on the go lifestyle. We've already set up a follow up visit and testing- it didn't feel like a revolving door or a "one and done" visit.
Verified patient
Fantastic experience. I have seen a few nutritionists in the past decade for different issues and I don't need to look anymore. Limor had great advice, was easy to talk to, no judgments, no rushing, and knows a lot about nutrition.
Limor was very welcoming and made me very comfortable. She helped me come up with a healthy meal plan that seems practical. Great office environment.
I really liked Limor but I felt as if the information she provided me on my diet was really common sense. I know what I need to eat and what I shouldn't but I would rather develop techniques to help me slowly eliminate what I shouldn't be eating.
She is really good - kind, professional, attentive, really knows food combos & other illnesses; thorough about using diet to heal self!!
Verified patient
Very helpful. Kind and helpful office staff. Limor was very patient and understanding. I can't believe I was able to get an appointment so soon. Limor was Super knowledgeable and willing to explain things thoroughly. She was willing to go the extra mile to help me! I could not have been happier.
Verified patient
She was very detail oriented and informative. She listened to and addressed my concerns. Overall a very positive experience.
I liked her a lot, however one thing I did not know is that they require you to keep a credit card on file. I wasn't comfortable with that & still am not. That was how my session started, so it was a bit stressful at first.
Limor was very approachable and personable. I came to her needing to talk about sensitive issues and she listened to me with compassion and care. She worked with me for a full hour to develop exactly what i needed. I highly recommend her for anyone seeking guidance with their nutrition.
It's rare to find a provider who takes the time to understand my issues and thoroughly explain her recommendations. I am definitely going to continue seeing Limor until I reach all of my goals. Highly recommended!
Very informative on what is healthy and what is not. She listened carefully and responded with a plan adjusted to my habits and needs.
It was good. I was running late, however she saw me on time. Since I was running late, we didn't have an extended session so can't really compare to other nutritionists.
