” Sally 是一位專業、細心、親切和可靠的營養師。由於她的主動和廣泛的醫療知識及脈絡，她現在已經成為我們的「家庭健康顧問」。請看以下的分享：

我和我先生已經認識Sally超過三年。我先生是癌症康復者及糖尿病患，而我是退休公務員。我們是透過我先生的主診醫生認識Sally。Sally 要首先跟進我先生在治療後的飲食情況等等。她透過簡易說明，實際又靈活可行的方法，令我們願意嘗試改變飲食習慣。我們沒有比較其他營養師，因為感覺她很周全。在Sally 的引導下，我們的體重及其他各方面都維持良好水平。

最值得欣賞的是Sally 的主動性。她發現我先生的驗血報告部分有異常，就主動去了解，提供可行的建議，例如介紹專科醫生等 。她怕耽誤時間，還親自幫忙預約。她的行為仿似我的親人一般關顧，實在難能可貴！現在，Sally 已經成為我們的家庭健康顧問，每次見面都很愉快和充實。

這樣的營養師，除值得表揚外，實在義不容辭要推薦。

Sally is a professional, attentive, approachable, and reliable dietitian. Due to her initiative, extensive medical knowledge, and connections, she has now become our “Family Health Consultant”. Please see the following testimonial:

My husband and I have known Sally for over three years. My husband is a cancer survivor and a diabetic patient, and I am a retired civil servant. We were introduced to Sally through my husband’s doctor, as Sally wanted to follow up on his diet and overall health after treatment. Through simple explanations, practical and flexible methods, she motivated us to try changing our eating habits. We didn’t feel the need to compare her to other dietitians because we found her approach to be comprehensive. Under Sally’s guidance, we have been able to maintain a good weight and overall well-being.

What is most admirable about Sally is her initiative. She noticed some abnormalities in my husband’s blood test report, took the initiative to investigate further and provide feasible suggestions, including referring him to specialists. She even helped us make appointments, showing genuine concern for our time and well-being. We truly appreciate her for that. Her caring nature made us feel like she was a relative of us. Sally has now become our trusted “family health consultant”. Every dietary session with her is not only enjoyable but also highly rewarding.

A dietitian of Sally’s caliber not only deserves praise but also warrants strong recommendation.”

” Three years ago, my brother was diagnosed with duodenal adenocarcinoma. He underwent the Whipple surgery right away. After the surgery, the doctor recommended he underwent a six-month chemotherapy in a bid to eliminate cancer cells that might be remaining. The chemotherapy was a nightmare, completely disrupting his appetite and causing severe weight loss. This year, in consideration of the tiny spots in his lungs (suggestive of spread), the doctor recommended again that he underwent another chemotherapy. This time, we sought advice from Sally regarding dietary recipes and food supplements. The chemotherapy involved a seven-round treatment package. In each round, he recovered quickly, thanks to Sally’s proactive concern. We therefore would like to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude to Sally for her attentive care and expert recommendations throughout the entire chemotherapy process.”

“I have struggled with IBS and weight management for the past few years and was therefore hesitant to see a dietician as all the doctors and specialists have failed to help me. But when I started with Sally, it wasn’t even a month before I saw and felt changes. I am now 4 months along and to be honest she has changed my life: I am no longer bloated or in pain and have seen a significant decrease in my weight. Her care and scientific knowledge is incredible and I am so happy to have her in my life!”

“Sally was amazing. I went to her as I was doing a half marathon plus a lot of sports and didn’t have enough energy. I was eating too much protein and not enough carbs. Felt much more energetic when I switched and perfect diet for my race. Great advice and works with you and your lifestyle.”

“I was referred to Sally for my son through a pre-diabetic friend who has seen great results with Sally.

My son has autoimmune/celiac/endocrine issues and was literally off the growth charts in weight and height. I had seen nutritionists for many years who had restricted his food tenfold. It was very difficult for him to gain weight and grow on the almost “weight loss/‘clean’ eating” type plan they had put him on. All these modern-day fad diets and beliefs can be very dangerous when dealing with sick kids but I didn’t know any better; I didn’t even know the difference between a nutritionist and a dietitian! Dietitians are qualified to work with sick children/adults and often in hospital settings.

After just 1 month of seeing Sally, my son gained 1.3kg and grow 1.2cm. Sally took away the fear of eating for us and opened up a world of yummy food for my son. The Ensure shakes he is on that I heard were so ‘bad’ for him obviously did wonders for his fast metabolism and have enabled him to grow. Sally is very science and medicine-based and takes away a lot of anxiety about simple things like giving a child dairy, which in today’s world, have been written about far too frequently by unqualified individuals and fearmongers. Even my son’s gastroenterologist was thrilled with Sally’s recommendations. What works for a 50-year-old weight-loss client is different for these sick kiddo’s with very high energy output.

One of the best things about Sally is that you can WhatsApp her photos and questions at any time and she is always so quick to respond. Sally cares about her patients and has added happiness to my child’s life the last month, through food, which his body has loved; proved by his gains.

We highly recommend Sally and wish more people could know about the wealth of knowledge that a dietitian can provide.”

“I arrived in Sally’s office 3 years ago a physically broken person after a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes.  After showing her my bloodwork and going through my daily schedule and work out plan with her, Sally provided me with a tailored diet which both reduced my HbA1c dramatically as well as suited my overall lifestyle.

Today, I am almost completely off my medication for Type 2 Diabetes and I continue to enjoy the diet program that Sally provides.  Not only is it healthy and nutritious, I ENJOY the food that I can eat.  I am healthy and happy!

Thank you Sally!”

“I moved to Hong Kong from London, about 18 months for professional reasons. The first few months, I was living in a small service apartment without a proper kitchen and along with the fact that Hong Kong offers a great variety of good restaurants, I ended up eating every day out which “helped” me gain some serious weight. When I finally return to a healthier routine from a diet and exercise perspective, I thought that I could be back to my previous weight relatively easy, it wasn’t difficult to lose 6kg in the past, after all. But….nothing happened. I was trying very hard for months, decreasing so much my daily calories and increasing the time in the gym with no result. The fact that I also entered menopause definitely didn’t help. I decided then that I need a professional to help me lose the extra weight and ….frustration.

Sally was one of the dieticians recommended to me. Since our first meeting, I was impressed by her calmness and professionalism. She is very open and honest, she doesn’t oversell and she explains very well what’s the situation, how can be fixed, and what to expect. She completely changed my life, and this is not an exaggeration: after 6 months of a healthy and not strict diet ( I could enjoy my wine for instance) I managed to lose not only the 6 kg but an additional 4kg (overall 10kg) and feeling great with my new body!!!

3 months passed since then, I maintain my weight with no problem by having a healthier diet, working out regularly, and enjoying dinner and drinks with friends. Sally’s greatest success is that you don’t feel that you are on diet, that you are deprived of your social life, or treats like dessert or alcohol. And she is always there for you to answer any question and reassure you if you have any doubts.

Sally thank you again!”

“ I found out that I had Coeliac disease in 2015 and despite a gluten-free diet, I was constantly suffering from stomach aches (bloating). After various medical consultations I met Sally Poon who was able to prescribe a gluten-free, low FODMAP diet adapted to my personal tastes while recommending various supplements to compensate for my vitamin deficiencies. I felt the benefits of this diet almost immediately after starting it. I would highly recommend Sally for her listening, her kindness, her professionalism and her motivating support.”

Lais from France, Nov 2020

“I am from Argentina and have lived in Hong Kong for almost three years. I met Dietitian Sally Poon at the end of 2015. My main goal was to learn how to eat healthily. But her relaxed approach and determination with tailoring a realistic and ‘doable’ nutritional plan, led me not only to start eating healthily but also helped me lose 20kg in one year and a half.  What appeared to be impossible was not at all! I am convinced that her success is based on the fact that she is not the type of dietitian that tries to make you become someone different from who you are, making you feel a loser that will never improve.

Instead, she pragmatically took my habits and suggested some smooth changes that were easy to implement as I emphasise. An eloquent example: “I can understand your love for Japanese food, but instead of ramen, why not having a Vietnamese pho, a healthier broth which I can include in your plan?”. In this way and with simple tips, I didn´t realise how quickly I changed my habits, reduced my portions, learned about new products available in the stores and started losing weight! Mainly with a small reorganization of my everyday life, combined with a daily routine at the gym, which she also supervised.

If I have to summarise Sally ´s key success, I would say “sustainability”. She made me feel that with small changes and no suffering at all, I could become a healthier person with no backlash. And as a result, I´ve gone back to the weight I used to be 20 years ago.

I strongly recommend Sally’s service, if your aim is not only losing weight, but also learning how to live in a better, happier way.”

“My father has diabetes, gout and recently was diagnosed with lung cancer. During his cancer treatment, we also discovered his renal functions were in very poor condition. So much so that we had to suspend his chemotherapy. He was losing weight quickly and going in and out of hospitals.

We reached out to Sally after finding her on the internet. From the first phone call, I was impressed with Sally’s attention to detail and comprehensive understanding. Even prior to our first face-to-face meeting she reviewed all of my father’s medical records and put together a well-prepared plan. She identified how poor my father’s renal functions were and guided us on how to speak to the doctors who up until that point gave us little information. When she met with my mother and she was patient, a good listener and was able to explain things to my mother in a way that she could understand. Her meal plans were well suited to my father and in a very short time, he was able to stop taking insulin for his diabetes and began to maintain weight and stabilize his blood pressure. He has now restarted his cancer treatment.

Though I know my father may still succumb to his cancer, Sally has given us some hope that we will have a little more time with my father and the quality of his life has improved. Sally is more than a dietitian and has become family. Thank you so much!”

Mabel from Hong Kong, 2017

“I am from Argentina and had worked in Hong Kong between 2012 and 2015. I became a client of Ms. Poon since my early days there. I worked hard under her steadfast guidance and was able to lose and keep off 8 kg. Not only did my weekly consultations with Ms. Poon’s help me in the short term, but they also allowed me incorporate healthy habits which, in turn, have permanently made me a fitter and health-conscious person.

If I had to point out a differential which sets Sally Poon apart from every other dietitian I’ve ever consulted with, it would have to be her personal readiness and commitment as well as the dynamism of her approach. She helped me spot flaws in my nutritional habits I was unaware of, devised a tailor-made programme suited to my cultural and work needs, and changed things up whenever I hit a plateau.

Although I have moved from Hong Kong, I still often consult with Ms. Poon from my new home in Austria. She remains a committed professional and has helped me to adapt my habits to my new life in Vienna. Her competence remains as remarkable as ever: she has researched the cuisine in my new environment and advises me on the do’s and dont’s necessary to remain fit and healthy.”

“When I first saw Sally, I was very overweight and suffering from borderline Type II Diabetes. I could not to one sit-up. Sally put me on a strict regimen that was fun. She made sure the foods that cut out were unsuitable to me. She helped me “unfriend them”. She also made sure the diet (and lifestyle changes) I adopted were healthy, nutritious, good tasting and fun. I have lost more than 20 kg and am vigorously active. She is such a joy. Her technology gives you an exact sense of what is happening to your body as fat falls and muscle stabilizes. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

“I met Sally about 18 months ago, while I was diagnosed as being diabetic and also with serious obesity problem. I am so thankful to have her help and support in my weight loss program. My success wouldn’t be what it is today without her professional guidance and support. She taught me weight loss was much more than BMI and calories, but how to eat right and wisely. I love the way she listens to me and my concerns. I feel like there is someone by my side during this very difficult and painful journey. She plays an important role to help me reach my goal of becoming as healthy and fit as I possibly can be. I don’t know where I would be without her. I am truly happy! I enjoy life again! I am in my size 8. Thanks Sally!”

“Before meeting Sally, I tried many different ways to lose weight – taking weight loss medications, doing different kinds of exercise like gym and yoga but nothing worked for me. My weight rebounded once I stopped taking the medicines and I even got heavier than before. I met Sally 5 years ago and I am so thankful to have her help and support on my weight loss program. She taught me how to eat right and build up exercising habits; she also helped me set goals and prioritise.  Sally is a perfect listener and guided me with professional advice based on what I enjoy eating. It took me about 5 months to lose 25 pounds and achieve my goal. During my weight loss journey, I also built up my exercising habit which helps me to stay fit be a healthier person. Thank you so much, Sally!”
