The exceptional care I provide is enabled by intensive, ongoing study and experience in functional medicine nutrition, exercise physiology, the biochemistry of mental health and lifestyle intervention, plus careful attention to feedback from patients.
Success Stories - Weight Loss & Chronic Health Issues
Weight Loss Goals Reached & Hormonal Health Achieved
Finally I have reached my weight loss goal of 30 pounds! I made the decision to do the twelve week program you offered and I am so glad I did. For a very long time I have been confused about how I should eat. There is so much conflicting information out there. You showed me exactly what I needed to do to overcome my sluggish metabolism and burn fat. I loved how you gave me meal plans that worked just right for the time I had available for meal prep, which is very little! You also taught me what was causing my dry skin and hormone imbalance and how to correct it. Thank you for coming through with a workout program that was short and sweet so I have been able to stick to it! I feel like a new woman. I will definitely be telling my friends about your programs.

CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease), Diabetes, Obesity, High Blood Pressure
Karen Bishop is a life saver and I mean that in every sense of the word. When I was first diagnosed with Kidney issues I felt like my life was over. Anyone would feel that way. I cried and prayed for someone to help me. God and the Universe sent Ms. Bishop. She was able to correct my train of thought and teach me the science of nutrition. I was never afraid to die but I was afraid of dialysis. However, through eating right Karen Bishop proved to me that dialysis can often be avoided as long as I make the right food choices. I went from an eGFR of 59 to 81 in 4 months. My weight dropped from 240 to 154. I've reversed both Diabetes and HIgh Blood Pressure. I no longer crave sugar and carbs because low-sugar natural fruits and veggies give me every benefit I need. Again, the only regret I have with working with Karen Bishop is I wish I would have met her sooner. Not only is she my dietitian and my lifesaver but she's also my friend. -- Kelly G.
Burning Mouth Syndrome
Karen Bishop gave me the tools and knowledge to help me with my burning mouth syndrome (BMS) issues. BMS is a complex disorder and with Karen’s expertise, I was able to balance my hormones and determine what supplements and tinctures I should take to treat BMS.
She also recommended a chiropractor to help me with my neck, back and TMJ problems. We also tested for food allergies and discovered I had many additional food allergies that I was previously unaware of.
Karen provided me with the personalized and comprehensive workbook that provides a roadmap for improved nutrition and overall wellness.
Karen Bishop‘s commitment helped me overcome many of the symptoms of burning mouth syndrome (BMS) I was experiencing. I couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you Karen. - D.T.
Blood Pressure Lowered Without Medication
Dear Karen,
When I first came to you my blood pressure averages were 138/86 in the mornings and 135/84 at night. Five weeks later my blood pressure averages are 114/72 in the mornings and 115/71 at night. To have the systolic pressure drop 20 plus points and the diastolic pressure drop 13-14 points in 5 weeks is amazing ... and without any medication. I detest the thought of me taking prescription drugs when my food can be my medicine more effectively. During this same 5-week time period I have lost 8 pounds.
Also, I appreciate your listening ear and keen ability to get right to the heart of the matter. I have tried to think of words to use to express my appreciation, but I have been unable to improve on those two often-used words "THANK YOU".
As I have grown healthier each day, I can truly say that I am most fortunate to have your good care and counsel.
Sincerely,
John W.
Health Restored After Multiple Chemical Sensitivity Illness
(After a home remodeling project) I became very ill, and I was diagnosed with multiple chemical sensitivities. Because of Karen Bishop's excellent nutritional advice and her knowledge of MCS, I am able to resume my normal daily activities and my health has been restored. Thanks, Karen, for all your dedicated work!
