good appointment, created a clear meal plan

Leah taught me that after eating a lot over the weekend and then seeing a "sizeable weight gain" a few days later that it was in fact not a real weight gain. The next day I weighed myself and my weight went back down. She helped me not overreact.

I would 100% recommend Leah Kaufman! I came into our initial meeting having a basic sense of proper nutrition yet struggling to make a dent in my postpartum weight loss. Leah listened intently and provided helpful guidelines and insight into adjustments I could be making that would yield results. Furthermore, we discussed meals that I liked and she helped me think through them in a more wholesome way, making me feel like I wasn't sacrificing anything (which was how other meal plans/diets were making me feel). It's only been a few weeks but I already feel a significant difference, not to mention a few pounds lighter!
August 30, 2023Maya A.Verified patient
I wasn’t sure what to expect from my first visit with Dr. Kaufman and having never gone to a nutritionist before, so I was a bit anxious. But as soon as we started talking I was definitely put at ease! She is extremely knowledgeable and addressed my concerns and really took the time to find out why I was there and how she could help. I’m looking forward to my next visit!
August 29, 2023Angelina K.Verified patient
I calculated out the proposed amount of food (protein and carbs) and cross referenced against other sources. She just prescribed the minimum amount of starchy carbs and protein, without taking into account size of the person she is working with or life style or easing you into this new eating lifestyle. Eating with her felt like being on a diet (I received the same nutritional info that I would have from the internet or from my gym). Most useful thing was the Healthie app. For meals, she just sent a list of websites for you to reference for meals. Bedside manner was not empathetic. She seemed disinterested the entire time.

Good for first step and specific point answers for established knowledge - but missing a complete and sustainable plan. Not customized or tailored advice. Follow up questions not answered. Triggered me to seek a further/second opinion that was able to offer more specific and sustainable advice.
August 13, 2022Syed A.Verified patient
Leah is very easy to work with. Personalized my plan around the routines I already had in place so I have a clear understanding of the changes I need to make.
February 16, 2022Farrah R.Verified patient
I've been to a number of dieticians over the years, and Leah Kaufman is by far the best. She is very knowledgeable, thorough, takes the time to answer questions, and explains things in a way that's easy to understand. She listened to my issues and developed a plan that was individualized and simple, yet comprehensive. I recommend her highly.

Dr. Kaufman is very knowledgeable and pleasant to speak with. She is not judgemental (something that I was worried about meeting with a dietician) and provided very helpful advice and practices.
Sapir S.Verified patient
Made me feel super comfortable! Thank you
December 15, 2020Subitha N.Verified patient
I had a great experience with Leah. The experience was not what I expected, we looked much deeper into my eating habits and assessed where I could make changes for a healthier palette. She helped me shed some weight while also encouraging healthy eating habits for life !
November 11, 2020Kaitlyn B.Verified patient
She asks the right questions and helped me come up with a customizable meal plan. I’d met with Leah before and wanted to refresh my memory and plan. She did an excellent job. I’d definitely recommend.
June 26, 2020Julia W.Verified patient
She was amazing. She gave me so much information and I could tell within 5 minutes of being there I was going to walk out with satisfied. The last dietician I went to didn't give me as much information and I felt because I'm generally healthy overall she didn't feel a need to schedule a follow up. This appointment was exactly what I was looking for. I have a few follow up bi-weekly visits and she is going to track my process throughout that time. Highly recommend!
Carolyn W.Verified patient
Leah has worked with me to create a more holistic approach to losing weight. We focus on my relationship with food and building a healthy balanced diet over time instead of a strict lose weight fast approach. I truly appreciate her time, insight, and knowledge in nutrition.
Ker T.Verified patient
Just had my first visit! She was very nice and really broke everything down in an easy way to understand and implement!
I’ll definitely see her again and I’m looking forward to it!
January 14, 2020Grace V.Verified patient
I like her:
1. Active listener
She has the listening skill of a therapist
2. Smart outsourcer
I love it that she uses outsourced billing and an app to communicate and track my progress
3. Good planner
I love it that she gave me a plan that I feel comfortable executing
November 19, 2019Liz D.Verified patient
Leah was great! She was very patient with all of my questions and took the time to make sure I understood everything. I’m looking forward to continuing to learn from her!
November 18, 2019Charlotte S.Verified patient
Leah was really wonderful! She was thorough and asked questions throughout the initial consultation. She listened to what I had to say and didn't judge me for my answers which was great and helped me be honest! Overall wonderful experience and I look forward to working with her in the future!

I really enjoyed the visit with Leah. She was professional, gave real advice, and never once made me feel uncomfortable. She's personable and incredibly helpful- would recommend!

felt like I was diagnosed before I arrived as I received the informational docs before my appointment with food guidelines. Wish it had been more personalized.

She was very personable and took a full assessment of what I was looking for. Definitely looking forward to next appointment. Also loved that she specialized in diabetic nutrition, something harder to find in the city.
