What an amazing day I had. I learned so much from both Claire and Mearelle. This was truly a rewarding experience.

I got to see 2 sessions. An initial dietitian consultation and a feeding therapy session.

To get to see the multidisciplinary approach was extremely valuable. I was able to see a child at the beginning of their journey and another a few sessions in. The difference was amazing.

Claire and Mearelle's approach and rapport with the children and parents was incredibly thoughtful and caring. Even from just observing their interactions I learned so much.

While a half-day session isn't enough time, I've gained so much insight into a specialty I initially knew very little about. I can truly see the difference your clinic makes in others' lives. 

Please thank Claire and Mearelle for me. They were so welcoming, happy to answer all of my questions and include me in the sessions. 

Thank you so much for the opportunity Simone. I look forward to the next time our paths cross!
