 “Shelby helped me at a very difficult time in my second pregnancy with gestational diabetes (again!). Not only did she recommend a diet based on my preferences and lifestyle, she was also very kind and attentive. If there’s one thing we all gained from the new online access to doctors everywhere, it’s being able to find a professional like her!”
