I am so grateful to have found Dorothy and get to work with her on my journey toward a much improved and healthier life style. She showed me many unique tools and ways to strategize smart eating choices that I use regularly. Some of these tips seemed small and subtle, but have made a huge difference in health and weight loss! She works within your needs and tastes and effectively maps out a personal plan bringing with it the latest studies in nutrition. These are lessons that will last a lifetime! Thank you, Dorothy!

Dorothy Bernard (Healthy4Life) really helped me get my diet, and life, on track. After spending 2 separate occasions at the ER, while eating what I thought were the correct foods for my issues, I finally decided it was time to see a professional. For an entire weekend, I researched many dieticians. Dorothy was at the top of my list. I called her, left a message, and she promptly returned my call. I immediately felt comfortable. Dorothy is very knowledgeable, and backs up her recommendations with scientific facts. She works with each individual and she really listens and makes adjustments, if needed. Also, she doesn't try to "keep" you beyond the time that you need, and she always has an open door (and ear) if you need her. I highly recommend her!

Dorothy Bernard is an amazingly wonderful person, exceptionally well-versed nutritionist and a positive, life-changing coach. I went to her in April 2022, when I finally decided I needed help losing weight. At the time, I weighed 175 lbs., which for my height put me in the high end of the Adult BMI index, overweight and edging toward obesity. With her monthly detailed guidance about healthy eating, portion awareness and changing habits, I was able to lose over 20 lbs. over the next six months! I am now at 153 lbs. and have been holding steady even during this holiday season, without depriving myself of any of my favorite holiday treats! I cannot recommend Dorothy highly enough—she is a true find!

Dorothy Bernard saved my wife Laura Lynch’s life by changing what She was eating which was causing inflammation due to Celiac disease. I also went to Dorothy to assist with healthy weight loss.

I encourage everyone to go to her for a consultation to improve your diet and education yourself before it’s too late.

Dorothy is very easy to talk to and she is also very detailed and systematic in her approach of your diet and dietary needs. I would therefore highly recommend Dorothy for all your dietary needs.

Dorothy had a very positive effect on my life. Her common sense approach helped me change and improve my basic eating habits. I initially saw her looking for an alternative to a prescribed surgery. She helped me to achieve this goal for which I am deeply grateful.

She's helped me so much through my pregnancy! I have IBD and my pregnancy caused major food aversions with "morning sickness" (aka all day nausea) so having guidance on what foods would not make me sicker. I was able to finally gain weight once I started working with her. She's so sweet and excited about good nutrition. I can't recommend her enough.
