PCOS Nutrition Co. - Charlotte, North Carolina

I have SO many amazing things to say about Samara. As someone who eats a plant based diet, I’m always nervous health professionals are going to push me toward eating animal products, but Samara had a wealth of knowledge and understanding for my choices and I felt incredibly respected during my entire time working with her.

I decided to reach out to Samra after having an array of health issues and symptoms that was lasting for months on end. I was feeling incredibly frustrated that no medical professional I visited was able to help me or discover the root cause of my symptoms. It took Samara a short, 15-minute phone consultation with me to suggest I get bloodwork done to check certain vitamin levels and sure enough- I was severely deficient in two vitamins that were causing the range of symptoms I was experiencing.

When working with Samara, I was always impressed at how thoughtful her recommendations were. She is incredibly intelligent and very up to date on the latest nutrition studies and trends but has a beautiful gift of being able to impart her knowledge in a friendly, understandable way to a person who isn’t as familiar with nutrition science. Samara gave me customized recommendations, tools and the support to feel empowered to fall back in love with food and cooking for my health.

My experience working with Samara was life changing. Not only did I feel completely comfortable talking with her, she has a wealth of knowledge, tips and ideas and will meet you at whatever step of your nutrition journey you’re on. If you’re looking for a dietitian who will give you the foundation to succeed and grow, even years past working with her, I cannot recommend working with Samara more.

Samara is incredible and very passionate about everything she does! Especially when it comes to your health. She was able to help me through a very complex health situation where I was so confused about what the doctors told me. She explained it in a way I could understand and really calmed me down by suggesting some logical ways that I could change my diet and lifestyle. She is great about keeping in contact and following up as much as you need. Contact her right away, you won't be disappointed!

Samara's expertise in nutrition has been incredibly helpful in managing the symptoms of a complicated health issue. She provided hands-on and realistic ways to work through each problem and since meeting with her, I've easily applied the solutions to my lifestyle. I'd refer her to anyone looking for reliable nutrition counseling!

I have nothing but positive words to share about my experience in nutrition coaching with Sam. Sam provides a safe, validating atmosphere for her clients with a weight-neutral and intuitive eating approach. Working with Sam has been so impactful in my relationship with food and body movement. Thanks to the tools that Sam suggested, I've been able to make consistent small changes that focus on my overall health, not a number on the scale.

Working with Sam changed my life.

I finally received detailed information about PCOS and exactly how it impacts my body - something no doctor has ever taken the time to explain to me in the ten years since my diagnosis. She listened and answered my endless questions. Somehow, she always helped me unlock something new about myself in every session. I left each one feeling empowered. She armed me with the tools I needed for so long.

I’ve been able to lower my blood pressure, drop the diet mentality, work on body positivity, and end my binge eating. Food no longer controls me. I don’t feel weighed down by diet-centered thoughts anymore. I no longer look at a food and only see its calories. I can eat in a way that fuels my body and still enjoy a treat.

I will always be thankful for Sam and the positive impact she’s had on my life. She helped me let go of many years of diet culture and absolute stress. I finally feel free. And that’s all I ever wanted.

I've been working with Samara for a while and she's amazing! She's so compassionate and professional. She's helped me so much already with my approach and understanding of nutrition!

If you are looking for specific help with creating a meal plan or needing specific recommendations for foods that will help you then I do not recommend as her approach is not helpful. I had to go through my endocrinologist to get a recommendation to a nutritionists that would be more helpful. Nothing against her personally as she seems really nice, however her approach was not helpful for me at all. I also felt like she took it personal when I voiced my opinions about this and she stopped calling and setting up appointments I assume that this was her way to inadvertently telling me she no longer wanted to see me but it would have been nice to have been given a phone call and not left hanging, as that came off as very unprofessional.

Sam reviewed my three day food diary and gave me a complete breakdown of my diet, what I was lacking, and what I was overindulging on. She also gave me some great tips on what to use as replacements foods, and easy shopping tips for when I go to the grocery store.

Changing your diet is one of those things that seems really big and complicated, and Sam is great at taking something some complicated and making it seem doable.
