    Tough to express the gratitude I have for Dr. Blackman and Janelle! I started seeing them a couple weeks after recovering from a virus and was having a very difficult time completely recovering from the lingering symptoms. I was experiencing shortness of breath, fatigue, and most of bodies systems seemed to be out of whack. Dr. Blackman put me on a program that started yielding results within a couple of weeks, and Janelle made sure I kept my nutrition on track. I enjoyed my weekly appointments and experiencing the very real progress happening every week! Now, 5 months later, happy to say the lingering symptoms that many experienced have gone away and I feel great. I would recommend Complementary Applied Nutrition to anyone!

    Dr. Blackman is very caring and thorough. He genuinely listens and addresses concerns. I have never felt as though he is rushing during an appointment so that he can move on to his next patient. Dr. Blackman has helped me thaw a frozen shoulder and more recently to get over a virus. During both of these difficult times, Dr. Blackman reached out to check on me between appointments. It's so nice to have a practitioner that truly cares about your overall well-being.
