Great Service, Great Results

by The Foodinista at Citysearch

Thanks to Ashley, my difficult pregnancy became less so. I had pretty severe edema, and Ashley helped me address the issue through diet and I saw great results. Also, after having a healthy baby boy, I consulted Ashley in hopes of taking off 15 lbs of baby weight. Thanks to a nutritious and realistic plan, the first 10 lbs came off in two weeks! She's amazing.

• Pros: practical and attainable nutritional goals

You can certainly lose a ton of weight with a cheesy fad diet. But more than likely, you'll gain it right back. If you want to lose weight in a slower, more sustainable way, Ashley provides a great solution. Her plan is personalized, sensible and easy to follow. She's very good at follow-ups, and is personable and professional. Highly recommended.

• Pros: Example: best croissants in town
• Cons: What are the drawbacks?

Excellent and Professional

by CaddyLunches at Citysearch

I am a sixty-one year old who has fought the battle of the buldge my entire life. It seems that every time I blink I gain a few pounds. That's been the battle and probably always will be; losing that few extra pounds. I constantly tried to diet but then the rueful beast hunger reared its head and I had to soothe it as best I could. That unhealthy relationship with food meant that I faced every "eating event," as Ashley calls them, with anger, fear and trepidation. I was ready to file for divorce from food. Additionally, I had symtoms of IBS and was having difficulties digesting meats and cheeses. My work with Ashley has enabled me to tame the beast! I am no longer afraid and/or angry at food nor repulsed by the occassions for eating it. My weight is back to a normal range. And, Ashley has helped by presribing homeopathics which have mitigated the IBS and digestive issues. Job well done! Actually, what feels the best is that while I am an avid surfer, I now I eat foods I chose foods as fuel for my sport and not placebos for my feelings. That means I no longer (okay usually no longer) paddle out with the equivalent of a couple of steaming bricks in my gut! Ashley's expert, responsive, caring, a cheerleader. Ashley's terrific!

• Pros: Knows her stuff

The road to a healthy lifestyle starts with Ashley Koff..

by searchinginla at Citysearch

It?s difficult to put into words how much Ashley has helped change my life. After a friend?s recommendation I went to her. It was time! I was in my late 20?s, over weight, had acid reflux and digestion problems that I?d been ignoring for several years, and all of this was starting to effect both my personal and professional life. I?d never been to a nutritionist before, nor did I know what she could possibly do to help me with all of my problems but for some reason I decided to make an appointment. That was the appointment that changed my life forever!

My goal going in that day was to lose weight --- my focus going out was to begin living a healthy life. Over the next several months Ashley taught me which food groups I needed to eat every day, what a real portion size looked like, and most important ? we began to figure out where my stomach related problems stemmed from. This is where Ashley really shined. She had me try new foods, new combinations of foods, shift around eating times, etc. until we got it right! And along the way I was dropping pounds too. She became my coach, my mentor, and my friend.

Ashley REALLY cares about each person she works with. She?s extremely professional but also has this very down to earth, comforting nature about her. I think my favorite thing about Ashley is that she really helps me find ways to make this lifestyle work for ME. Her recommendations (places to eat, trainers, recipes, craving solutions, etc.) are almost as amazing as her knowledge of nutrition!

I always just assumed I?d live the rest of my life with late night heart burn, embarrassing stomach noises at meetings and movies, size 22 pants, and all the excuses in the world to explain why. Instead I sit here a healthy and happy size 8 with a strong understanding of my body and eating challenges and a ?normal? stomach, all thanks to Ashley. I recommend Ashley to people every single day. Today I recommend her to you?

• Pros: Knows her stuff! Great office and location, very accomodating, personal attention, reasonably priced, professional

'Simply the best

by sonnigmlw at Citysearch

In a city filled with health experts, (half of which I have visited) it is refreshing to work with Ashley. I have a chronic intestinal disease, an area Ashley specializes in. I love that she considers both a Western and Eastern approach to her practice. She prescribed supplements to aid my digestion and support my immunity and I definitely noticed a difference. Ashley goes above and beyond the call of duty, calling to check on me and she has also forwarded me new studies and articles related to my condition. Ashley comes referred by some of the best Gastroenterologist in LA and continues to be a great resources and wealth of knowledge. I am so grateful she is here!

Ashley is right on time!

by consalvo at Citysearch

As a personal chef, I?ve had the pleasure of working with and feeding many of Ashley?s clients. What's probably most amazing about Ashley is, her ability to give such up to the minute, sound nutritional guidance and do so in such a personable, uncomplicated way.

To me its important to connect with those we serve. What I hear often, from Ashley client's, is that she is passionate and very good at what she does. What I hear even more often, is that they have experienced results.
