"Having been with Michele and Josué through their own fertility challenges (resulting in a very healthy pregnancy!), and having experienced many positive results from my other patients who have worked with them, I can with confidence, recommend The Foundations Program. Whether a patient is trying to conceive naturally or needs infertility assistance, having a solid foundation from which to start, is essential to optimize chances for conception.  The Baby Journey series offers families healthy programs through all phases of starting a family.  We find it a wonderful resource for our practice!" 

– Dr. Jan Rydfors, MD, FACOG

"The Foundations Program offers the well-rounded approach to women's health we promote in our practice. We recommend to our patients that they learn the basic principles of a good diet and healthy lifestyle all of which are enforced in each Foundations program.  I have seen symptoms greatly reduced just from the lifestyle changes made by some patients.  We are confident that our patients are in good hands and always hear they feel markedly better after working with Michele and Josué."     

- Dr. Aaron Schuftan, MD, FACO
