“Ms. Gauthier is a very present help in my situation. I'm at that age where I feel so unhealthy, menopsusal having difficulty losing more than a few pounds at a time, not eating a balaned, healthy diet and lack of excrcise. Ms. Gauthier explained that being overweight or obese in my case is not what makes me unhealthy. Everything starts in the gut. She's given me a plan on how to achieve not just weight loss, but a plan to reach an overall healthier me. I am so thankful for her guidance and am so encouraged to know that I can reach that goal if I do the work. It's not too late. Thankful for Ms. Gauthier.”

Ms. Gaither was very kind and professional. She was able to answer all my questions and concerns about the weight loss medication. I will and have referred friends and family for her services. Thanks Ms. Gaither DNP
Very pleasant experience. My provider was patient, informative, and quickly responded to my needs. Overall, pleased with my weight management results and would highly recommend.
Dr. Gauthier does a great job and takes care of her patients. She never finishes an appointment without ensuring that her patients' needs are met. I would highly recommend scheduling a visit with her.
Very professional, Yva helped me reach my weight loss goal in about 5-6 month after I began working with Yva. She is simply the best.
My provider took the time to explain things to me in a way that I could understand. Sh is also concerned about my progress. I always look forward to my appointments with her.
