I am continually impressed with this platform and how easy it is to offer nutrition services through insurance to clients. I love seeing people from around the country; it feels great to expand and connect with clients near and far!

Shane Lazar, RD

I started my private practice over 3 years ago with Fay. Since then, I was able to leave my clinic role in January of this year and launch full time into private practice!

Emily Oschmann, RD

I'm excited to be a part of Fay’s Community. Connecting with all of you has been such a breath of fresh air—working in a virtual private practice can sometimes feel isolating, so it's great to have this support!

Jennifer Wilcox, RD

Loving the ease and support of Fay to take on my own clients outside my current FT job.

Julie Moyer, RD

I became a dietitian last year and I LOVE IT! I currently work full-time at a hospital and am trying to grow my private practice. This is why I joined Fay! I love helping clients dealing with cancer, and I plan on becoming a CSO.

Elena Logan, RD

I started with Fay in June 2023, and within a few months I had a full schedule of clients I was genuinely excited to work with!

Nicholas Rush, RDN

Obtaining insurance based clients and hiring a billing specialist is significantly more expensive than taking a one time hit. Fay’s payout rates are extremely high in the industry so I am grateful for the Boost button - it supported me in building a full client schedule in weeks!

Emily Timm, RD

I started with Fay over a year ago as a part-time private practice. The practice has been successful through Fay and is now my main source of income!

Emily Hammon, RD

I am so happy to have a platform to connect with other Fay RDs! I started with Fay a couple of months ago and love what it has done for my private practice management.

Candice Sapp, RD, LD, CDCES

It feels really great to witness RDs having such a positive impact on our clients’/patients’ health. Makes me feel like we can make a real difference by making nutrition care affordable and accessible for so many more people - the way Fay has done!

Rebecca Blake, RD

Best career choice I ever made was joining Fay and going all in on my private practice!

Juan Ramirez, RD

As an Air Force veteran with over five years of experience in dietetics, I bring discipline, precision, and a mission-driven approach to nutrition care. I hope to increase my client load and gain new insights from my fellow RDs. What lights me up is seeing improvements in those I help!

Calen Pangle, RD

I have a full schedule with a waitlist curating since July and am working on establishing a group practice! 2025 gonna be POPPIN’

Brooke Miner, RD

I’m passionate about helping others heal their relationship with food. Though I previously tried to build out my Instagram and website, Fay allows me to focus on the parts I enjoy (seeing clients) rather than the parts I don’t (billing, creating lots of content, etc.)!

Anna Gustafson, RD

I am obsessed with the new scribe feature. It’s so much better being able to fully focus on the client vs worrying about taking notes during the consult!

Megan Poczekaj, RD

I have been working with Fay for a few months and super excited to be here! I feel Fay has its finger on the pulse when it comes to gauging the needs of the RD community!

Sangeeta Pradhan, RD

Fay has accelerated my private practice growth more than I could have ever imagined! I am just about completely booked, and I’m working with clients in the areas I’m passionate about. I’m so grateful for the opportunity to do work that matters!

Mayci Herbert, RD

What lights me up? Empowering people to take charge of their health through practical, sustainable changes! I love simplifying complex nutrition concepts into actionable steps that people can incorporate into their everyday lives. If I had a superpower, it would be the ability to make nutrition feel less overwhelming and more doable for everyone!

Olayide Adejumobi, RD

I love what I do and I am excited to be a part of the Fay Community!

Claire Holmes MS, RDN, CDN

For me finding Fay was a game changer. I have been in the profession for nearly 20 years and had basically written it off as something that I loved but just doesn’t pay the bills. Fay has brought back hope that I can pay my bills and help people with nutrition! This is a big win for me and my practice.

Maria Keaveney, RD

I focus on simple and sustainable nutrition for my clients, help them chose whole foods over supplements, and create routines that are lasting yet flexible. I LOVE my job!

Lindsey Hudsmith, RD

I’m blown away by the support in the Community, so happy to be here!

Jamie Rinaldi, RD

I am happy to be here among you, like-minded RDs on a mission. I developed the desire to open my private practice helping people with diabetes rediscover joy and confidence around food and mealtime.

Zuge Adolphe, RD

After working in clinical settings for the past 7 years, I stepped away 2 months ago to pursue private practice full time! Fay has been instrumental in helping make that a reality. The flexibility and freedom this has brought to me and my family is unmatched.

Dawn Dragone, RD

Since being partnered with Fay over a year ago, my career and life has changed for the better! I am allowed to have my own style, schedule and help others through MNT. The client results and feedback have been amazing!

Amy Bakios, RD

I love the fay app my dietician is amazing

dm3q

Ambal Flores was very helpful, and I was patient with me. She suggested things that can help me lose weight without being so tough on myself. She questions and writes down things that can help me start my journey. Thank you! Can't wait for my next session

c1q

Great app!

bluejay

I really enjoyed my session with Ellen. It was fun, informative, and motivating! I'm looking forward to the next session. I feel I am on the road to recovery and my goals will finally be met. A lifestyle change in affect!!!

b5q

Anyone needing healthy advice, wanting to feel better, or just needing someone in your corner should definitely give Fay a try. I had my first consultation today, and my health coach was very informative, gave me wonderful advice, and was very professional. Thank you Fay!

b4q

Fay is exactly what I've been looking for. I'm excited about this journey!

e2q

I have worked with Jamie Zavala for quite some time. I can honestly say I was one of those people who hated being referred to anyone until I found Jamie at Fay. She has played a critical role in just helping me become a better person. Nutrition and diet play a vital role and can affect everything from mood to gut health to just feeling great about an awesome meal you created or new thing you tried. Fay, keep up the good work with folks like Jaime Zavala. Never thought nutrition could be fun 😁

q5q

Awesome ir was like she get me I was very comfortable

b0q

It was a great experience

a14xm

Felicia McCurry listens and offers great advice. I feel like I am being guided which is what you go to a registered dietician for.

crownqltesq

Amazing nutritionist shes helped me a lot with what I should change my foods to but aslo knowledgeable with any questions I might have.

Helpful services

Very Great Service covered by a wide range of insurance companies. It's definitely worth using if your insurance covers it. Getting to learn about nutrition from a RD is so helpful!!

cheetah

I feel as though Fay is a great resource and I enjoy meeting with my dietician, but the phone app seems to struggle when trying to upload journal entries. I can use my computer just fine, but the app always gives me the spinning wheel as though it is trying, but never actually gets there. This happens whether I am on wifi or my data. Don't have any issues with uploading on any other apps. Still love the program though!

e3q

Very informative and life-changing session.

raven

my insurance pays for my sessions and I love my dietitian end of story

e3q

It took a few initial appointments, but I finally found a great RD to assist me in overcomeing histamine overload and gut biomes imbalances. She is super sharp, hit the ground running, and seriously impressed me. Fay so far as been able to get all my appointments paid by my insurance. There was a bug with the app, but the app's developers were quick to respond to my feedback and released a fix to resolve it. I absolutely LOVE this app and this service.

shiba

I've struggled with food my whole life. On a whim I signed up with Fay. Sarah C. Has helped me reframe my thoughts and get comfortable with food again. She helped me navigate IBS issues. I have learned so much about my myself in this process, I'm astounded. My insurance totally covers my sessions, which is awesome. However, now that I've gone through the process of working with a registered dietitian, I would absolutely do it again even if my insurance didn't cover it.

the best librarian

Absolutely recommend if you have ins, worth everything to finally be able to talk to someone about how to actually go about getting healthy

Anonymous

Mark was very helpful & informative. He helped me with diet & nutrition concerns and answered all of my questions in a friendly, but professional way :)

dm1q

It's been really life-changing to start working with a dietitian. I feel so much more energized, I'm also happy to know that my balanced diet is good for me and my health. The app made it even easier to stay in touch with my RD, I've also been a big fan of the journaling feature - it helps me to reflect on how different meals make me feel. Loving that my RD gets all of those entries and we can look back on them together during our sessions and discuss what I've been eating! Thanks Fay!!

dm3q

Great company, if I do so say myself :)

t2q

Just started, but great so far and I have high hopes Fay will help me along the way.

p3q

Was really looking forward to the day this came out. This makes it much easier to journal

OP5D35L1

I've had 4 visits with my dietician Victoria and I love her! Fay made it easy to find someone that is knowledgeable and caring. I can easily message her on the app to get feedback on my meals, ask questions, etc. She helps me set reasonable goals to work toward healthy weight loss by eating healthier and increasing my exercise, and is available if I need some motivation. Highly recommend!

dm3q

My dietitian helped me choose some healthy, easy, and tasty foods and get in a better rhythm of eating and exercising too.

husky

Such an easy and convenient way to work with my dietitian. I'm a big fan of Fay!

shiba

The Fay app is great! You can search for a nutritionist by what you are looking to accomplish. I was specifically looking for a nutritionist that specializes in autoimmune and that is exactly what I found! I was able to put in my insurance information as well as my HSA card. I enjoy having virtual meetings as it is hard to make time to find a nutritionist that is close to where I live. The whole process is super simple. You can also send chats to your nutritionist which is a great feature. I 100% recommend the Fay app!

Maya.Adair

This is a fantastic way to connect with a dietitian. My insurance covers it completely! My dietitian is an amazing listener and collaborator. She motivates me, but in a supportive and balanced way.

rlbwalker

And love my dietitian Kenzie! She's been so helpful for me / my nutrition journey.

Gracekbailey

I have been working with Rita for years now. I have never been so supported and guided on such a difficult journey the way I have with her. She doesn't judge, she offers suggestions, she educates and she still shows you how to incorporate your happy foods. She works well with understanding different cultures and how to still enjoy special dishes. I feel empowered working with her and I have been blessed to find her. Her support goes beyond our appointment and I appreciate her a ton! I don't feel alone and I feel she's right along with me even if I slip up encouraging me through. I owe her a huge thanks!

Lalalinda23

Saw an ad on TikTok. Was super skeptical since most things on there are bogus. Let me tell you‚ I am so glad I tried it out. My dietician Francesca is amazing. I look forward to sharing my struggles and wins every week. The app is good. One thing I wish is that it would send me a push notification when my dietician responds to me. I have it set to allow push notifications but I'm not getting them. So I've missed her replies for a day or so since I have to remember to go look if she messaged me back. It's a small inconvenience though because she's the best. I almost didn't want to name drop cuz I'm scared she will get too popular

zozeluz

Alicia has been so helpful in giving me advice and recipe choices. Love everything about this app!

Katerinafiore

I love this app because I'm able to send my dietitian exactly what I eat every week and get personalized feedback <33 the user interface is also so easy

anikasreview

We met today for approximately an hour. She had prepared a couple of things for me to review prior to our meeting and I had sent her items that I wanted to cover in our first session. She was well prepared and explained things well. I am confident she has the experience to help me. I will be sending her lists of things I eat so she can calculate portion sizes and compare to the daily limits she has set for my condition. We have scheduled our next session in two weeks.

TVTmusic

I am two weeks in with Fay and loving it! Camilla Mirkin, RD is a perfect fit for me because she takes a holistic approach and I do not feel restricted. We discussed both long and short term goals that are realistic so I do not get discouraged like I have in the past from other diets. She is extremely knowledgeable and provides actionable advice I can incorporate in my day to day food choices. I love how she holds me accountable by having me send pictures on my meals daily. She even gives me product and recipe suggestions which feels above and beyond to me! The best part of it all is it is fully covered by my insurance. My only regret with Fay is that I didn't do it sooner!

Haliebryce

I reached out to Carah at Fay because my 3 year old was not gaining weight for a while. She gave me a lot of ideas and provided me with resources to increase his calorie intake. She was very patient and knowledgeable. She made me feel less worried and anxious about the situation. I feel very comfortable and confident now with my meal planning and schedule. I highly recommend Carah. Thank you!

Roula M

I can't say enough great things about Fay as a company and the incredible experience I've had working with them! One of the best parts is that my insurance covers their services, which makes it so easy to access the support I need.I especially want to highlight my dietician, Dawn. She is absolutely amazing. Every time we meet, she's incredibly prepared and organized. Dawn has a way of being super attentive and thoughtful, making every session feel personalized and impactful.On top of that, she's so communicative through the chat in the app‚Äîwhether it's answering my questions, offering tips, or just checking in, I always feel supported. Her dedication and professionalism have made a huge difference in my journey.

Sofie Stamas

Ms. Weaver was so helpful for me and my celiac disease! She has shown and given me proper knowledge about celiac. She was caring and she listened to everything that i had to say. She is great and super nice and is continuing to help me and support my gluten free diet!

Nissa2002

I used Faye for the first time. My husband and I worked with Misty Clackum. She was amazing. She listened to our concerns. She tried to make everything light while still giving us the facts. She is very knowledgeable and personable. By the end of the session we all had a plan that we understood. She was a great help. We would still be in the dark if it wasn't for her.

Kecreighton

Had a great initial appointment with my nutritionist. She was very thorough and looked into so many aspects of my health and current eating habits. I am excited to keep going. Easy to use app!

emanne97

Had my first session with Jessica, and she was great! She was very kind, knowledgeable, and easy to talk with. I can't wait to see what's in store next!

Kteichow

My ARNP recommended that I seek advice from a licensed nutritionist to address some issues that I was having. Melissa D., my Registered Dietician who has a special certification in diabetes and who works in clinical setting, has been very helpful because she meets my needs where I am currently, plus her practical advice helps increase my power to make healthier and manageable choices for my lifestyle. My nutritional and exercise goals are realistic, and I am making progress during the month that I have been participating in our sessions. Our conversations concern so much more than just eating more vegetables or just avoiding sugar! I look forward to continued success with her support! I also want to add that my picky insurance company pays for all costs!

Bijouxprof

I saw the ads on IG and thought I could give Fay a try since it worked with my insurance. I am two weeks in and I have partnered with a great dietician. I lost 14 lbs so far and feel more energized. I journal my days and meals. Get quick responses from my dietician and am getting the encouragement I need to start my new health journey. The app is easy is to use to connect with a dietician.

RentasJ

The Fay app is simple and easy to use ‚Äî it makes it easy to see when my next appointment is and lets me chat with my dietitian any time! Looking forward to what they're cooking up next!

commandshift90

I really don't know what I was expecting when going into the appointment. My RD was amazing and gave me so much information. I am looking forward to this journey! I'm really glad Fay matched me with RD Soliz. She's amazing!!

Dsleeth

I learned about Fay through Facebook.I completed the survey and talked with my insurance company, and it was just that easy. My dietitian, Jess is easy to talk with and gives lots of good suggestions regarding meal planning for my needs!

Retired C. W.

great team ;}

sgf14

I had a consultation with my dietitian today and she was wonderful! Asked really great questions to help us align on my goals and expectations, lots of great information of what to expect. I'm really looking forward to working with Fay and so grateful it is covered with my insurance! I finally feel like I have real help with nutrition and it doesn't cost me out of pocket, amazing!

linzkco

Can't say enough good things about using Fay and working with Laura! I've been to nutritionists before and I was suspicious at first of how easy it would be to see someone virtually and use an app and let me tell you so easy and surprisingly effective! Laura specifically has such a great perspective on how to approach new eating habits and help hold you accountable without being too rigid. She is so accommodating and kind and as a mom of 2 boys I just feel truly supported!

K8ieq

Love the app and my dietitian!

conniejpal

I have been able to lose 5+ lbs within a month following my nutritionist guidance. She is so sweet and informative. Thank you so much for

jessthemfbest

Just finished my first session and I am beyond excited about the holistic approach of the dietician (Kristin). However, the app itself could use a little more attention!

SuperAliEllis

I have been using the Fay Dietitian app for the last two months or so, and it's a fantastic tool for improving my nutrition. The personalized diet plans and easy daily tracking keep me on track without feeling overwhelmed. Plus, having quick access to an empathetic and knowledgeable dietitian for expert advice makes a real difference. Highly recommend to anyone looking for practical and supportive nutrition guidance!

nati g 1997

I have been using Faye to help manage my IBS. Before using Faye, I was struggling with daily symptoms, and I did not get any advice from my md that was helpful. My RD (Sally!) is amazing. She is so knowledgeable, and she always sends me amazing recipes/ notes after our visits. Truly thankful to have found Faye!

Annaberm

So far I am very impressed and happy with Fay! I loved my RD Camilla Mirkin and I am very excited to start this journey on getting my eating on track and balanced! 10/10 would recommend.

jugeezzz

I have have really great success using Fay to find an exceptional dietician. Anna has been so great thus far. We've only had a couple appointments but they have been amazing. I have such a complex case and the amount of thought and dedication she has put towards my treatment plan has been beyond what I expected. I'm so thankful to have found her and look forward to what the future brings for my health

Nay Eich

I had a wonderful experience in my first virtual meeting. My background was discussed at length, giving me confidence that my needs and goals were fully understood. We also set up a solid game plan moving forward, which left me feeling excited and prepared for the next steps.

E-A Jugs

Used Fay today for the first time and my experience was great. They provide you with lots of tools and providers. I recommend Fay and Viktoriia Waite, RD. She was full of knowledge, she listened, understood and addressed my concerns, and she didn't judge me. It was like talking to a friend I have known for years.

JEM2232354

I was in search of a new dietician for a while. I was struggling to find one that accepted my insurance and had convenient times to meet. Thankfully Fay meets both and all needs! I have the best dietician that helps me not restrict but make better choices for my health.

cataweena11

I saw this on a reel on Facebook and decided to see if it was legit. I met with my dietician and I love her. She is helping me work on my binge eating and finding solutions to help me reach my goals!

vhjjkf

I first heard about Fay on Facebook. I decided to give it a try and I am so glad that I did. I am one month into my sessions and getting so much out of them. The nutritionist I work with could not be nicer, kinder or more knowledgeable. And my insurance is covering my sessions completely. I recommend everybody give this app a try.

JLC inc.

I absolutely love talking with my provider, Kea. Never feel judged or down, always a positive interaction and feedback that is practical for the real world and my hectic life. Glad I payed attention to the TikTok ad!

Erin DM

Love how intuitive this app is‚Äîit is so easy to join appointments and chat with my RD, which is making it easier to actually incorporate recommended changes into my diet!!

Peas&carrots4me

Have been using Fay for almost a month for my IBS and Yamuna has helped me eat better. Each week we have a new goal, and is the best cheerleader.

Davidaloca23

I've been working with my dietitian through Fay for about three months and it's been such a great help and getting me out of a stuck place and eating and wellness and I feel more empowered now! My insurance pays for Fay.

Ghdnsjdjfk

I have been meeting with a Fay dietitian for a couple weeks so far to supplement my training and better track my macros and this app is a total game changer! I love how easy it is to meal journal and share notes with my dietitian. My RD is always quick to reply and address any concerns I have / suggest tips. I've seen so much improvement in my daily energy levels and already see more definition and muscle mass. 6 STARS!!

xxlilsabrinax3

Rosa has been great to work with. She has provided useful suggestions without judging mistakes I make.

Shel103081

Literally changed my life!!! A true God sent.

TW22908

I have been using Fay to meet with my dietitian for awhile now. This new app makes it so much easier to interact with my dietitian and keep on top of my journaling!

siccer

I honestly didn't expect to actually be able to get this type and quality of care covered by insurance. Super easy to book and communicate and a clean experience overall with the Fay app which is really unlike most things in healthcare. Didn't know stuff like this existed this is great!

Polin L

I have been seeing a dietitian for a bit and have always struggled with journaling (takes too long and is kinda annoying). This app makes it so easy - literally takes me 20 seconds to add something to my Fay journal and then I can move on with my life! Has been great bc journaling more has helped me achieve a lot of my nutrition goals a lot faster. Also the app keeps track of how long you've been journaling for - not to brag but I have a 27 day streak.
