I am so thankful for being referred for Dr. Raquel's support. She answered all of my questions thoroughly and provided her contact information for follow up. I think every family with food allergies should be notified of her services and offered a referral.rater8 Verified Patient

Raquel has been such great support. Our son has multiple layered medical concerns and has been awesome from the get go. She’s helped me to ask the right questions, consider other options, advocate for my son and make tough decisions more confidently. She has also engaged with our team of doctors and specialists across multiple practices which has been very helpful. I highly recommend adding Raquel to your team.rater8 Verified Patient

Raquel's insights and expertise have been invaluable. She has been (and continues to be) a rock for our family during some difficult times with allergy issues. Her nutritional knowledge and guidance is exceptional and her caring and understanding for the patient (and patient's family) is unparalleled.
