Testimonials
“Clemmie is really helpful and meets you were you are. She considers what is realistic and will work for you and is very evidence based. She provides information and realistic options and also the reasons why certain things will work.
Clemmie talked to me about being kind to myself around food after my surgery, I have ongoing issues around my relationship with food and the idea of not focusing on restrictions whilst recovering and finding my new way of eating post surgery was such an important point for her to make as I can easily slip into a negative 'restrictive diet' mentality about food. I now feel like I know how to navigate my life with food post surgery in a clear way, with solid evidence based guidelines.”
Sarah, (UC), UK
“What made working with Clemmie stand out for me is that she understands what it is like to live with IBD from a patient's perspective. Her in-depth knowledge of the condition and all that it entails was so reassuring and I felt in safe hands. She is understanding and doesn't recommend anything you aren't comfortable with. I really benefitted from having tailored 1:1 support based on my individual needs and have noticed an improvement in my symptoms and overall wellbeing since working with Clemmie. I would highly recommend working with Clemmie for anyone with IBD/IBS who is looking for specialised IBD nutrition and lifestyle support.”
Megan (Crohn’s Disease), UK
“Before I started the consultations, I had little understanding of diet and IBD and wasn't getting much diet support from my healthcare team. I was flaring on and off due to ineffective medication and had had a few steroid courses. My mental health was also in a bad place and I didn't know what else I could do to help manage my symptoms apart from medication. After working with Clemmie, I have a better idea of what foods work for me and what don't, as well as developing better lifestyle practices. I have a better understanding of how to manage nutrition and lifestyle with my IBD and working with Clemmie has helped bring back some confidence which had previously been lost due to my IBD. I feel more hopeful now and know that there are things I can do to help myself along the way.”
Megan (Crohn’s Disease), UK
“I have more energy, better skin and less frequent pains related to IBD. Clemmie shows great attention to detail and show of concern for really getting to the bottom of the problem. She has improved my knowledge of dealing with IBD. She is extremely friendly and acknowledgeable. Clemmie focuses on a lot of credible studies and it’s great knowing that she stays up to date with everything new.”
Cameron (UC/Stoma), UK
“I loved the rapport with Clemmie, her beaming smile lit up my computer screen. Totally loved how Clemmie's professional expertise was delivered during and between our online consultations with a holistic, kind, caring and open approach. It was a wonderful and nourishing experience. I had no idea the transformational impact it would have on my life as well as providing me with outstanding advice and information from a real expert.”
Maggie (IBS) UK
“Clemmie is extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She takes her time to go over everything and doesn't skip a beat. She is professional and very responsive when reached out to.
I am very thankful to have met Clemmie during my worst UC flare in history and appreciative of her time and efforts to help me safely get my symptoms into remission and take control of my life again.
It was also very comforting to know that Clemmie battled UC herself, which made her very relatable to me and therefore, I knew she would 100% understand all of my concerns and struggles.
If you are suffering from any digestive issues, please reach out to Clemmie at the NALM Clinic.”
Minela (Ulcerative Colitis), USA
“My quality of life has improved immeasurably from before due to Clemmie's consultations and help.
I have gone from daily painkillers to manage the discomfort, pain, on the verge of surgery to remission of my UC/pouchitis, symptoms managed, increase confidence and knowledge and much better prospects and hope for managing my UC/J-pouch for the future.
Clemmie has also helped me to completely change my attitude towards my UC, I will no longer just get on with it, which I believe will help me to continue progress in managing my illness.”
Ed (Ulcerative Colitis & J-Pouch), UK
“Clemmie is professional, knowledgeable and understanding. She puts you at ease talking about the embarrassing stuff and is reassuringly comforting with her confidence that things can and will get better.
The improvement I have seen is massive and the positive impact that that has had on my life has been extraordinary. My IBS symptoms have largely gone. Sure, I get the odd flare up from time-to-time, but they are easier to cope with mentally as I know it's an exception rather than the norm.
When I think about the hours I have spent researching how to manage my IBS symptoms, on doctors appointments and on CBT, and the money I have spent on Buscopan, peppermint oil capsules, etc, etc, I wish I had spoken to The NALM Clinic so much earlier in my IBS journey.”
Emma (IBS), Cambridgeshire
“I have been working with Clemmie for nearly a year now, following a recommendation while I was at a particularly low ebb with my Ulcerative Colitis. Initial scepticism about anyone being able to help, was quickly replaced with total trust and belief in the dietary and lifestyle changes I was making based on Clemmie's detailed analysis and resulting suggestions. Without Clemmie's input I simply didn't understand I could do anything more than try and hide my symptoms from others and hope that my medication stopped things from getting even worse. What Clemmie gives you is an understanding of exactly what is causing your symptoms and how and why her recommendations will improve things (which they invariably do). This is an enlightening experience and underpins how much Clemmie can help with our mental state and wellbeing as well as everything else.”

“Clemmie’s knowledge and expertise makes her such a valuable resource to so many groups of patients. I would always recommend her to my patients who are struggling with their digestive health.”
