Jo is amazing at what she does, PERIOD! She is attentive, caring and responsive. This is on top of her wealth of knowledge of fitness and nutrition. She has coached me for the past year and I have seen nothing but success and continual improvement.

- Jessica C.October 12, 2022

My experience was extremely positive. I was successful with the Inflammation Buster program because my coach Izzie had prompt responses whenever I had questions, and encouraging words whenever I expressed weakness.
- Elizabeth W.February 11, 2019

Dr. Jonene Ford was amazing! She was so kind and informative! 5 stars!
- Krystle M.August 10, 2022

Ford Wellness changed the way I look at food and how I feel about it. Being a person who enjoys eating, Jo educated me on how to eat well without calling it a diet. Her knowledge as a nutritionist along with regimented work out plans have been a true testament of me taking better care of myself. I am an advocate and refer others to her program.
- Taren K.December 9, 2018

So glad I booked an appointment with Dr. Ford! She was so knowledgeable and encouraging and clearly reviewed all of my information very thoroughly before my appointment. Excited to work with her on my health journey!
- Layne R.June 23, 2023

Coach Jo is very thorough. She scheduled a call with me after I filled out all the necessary forms where she gathered even more detail about me so she could formulate the best meal plan and fitness program for the goals I was trying to meet. She was my nutrition coach and she was very helpful and answered any and all questions I had, and timely. Coach Izzy was my fitness coach and successfully guided me through my workouts and checked in weekly!
- Amara J.August 17, 2019

I was very nervous about choosing a nutritionist. Dr. Ford put me at ease immediately. She asked lots of clarifying questions and gave me the confidence that I can achieve my goals. I am very excited to be working with her.
- Miriam L.June 20, 2022

The experience was great very detailed about what I need to do I absolutely will go back
- Kevin H.July 13, 2021

Jonene knows her stuff. She gave a seminar/session for Bladensburg High School baseball team on nutrition and fitness. As head coach I saw how the student athletes were less prone to injury and eating better and more prepared mentally and physically for practices and games. I'm thankful for the knowledge she imparted on the team and it showed!!!
- Anthony A.August 17, 2019

Dr. Jo was great. Listened very well and explained things very well.

Jonene is the best at what she does. I live in another state and no matter the distance she is always available with any questions or concerns I may have. She also inspires me to be the best I can be and she always encourages me even when it seems to be too difficult.
