She frequently was in the back seat as her parents took her grandmother to the hospital for admissions for congestive heart failure and diabetic comas. Diabetes and heart disease were the causes of death of her grandparents at a much too early age. Consequently, she attended medical school at West Virginia University and a residency and fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh in Internal medicine and Cardiology. She spent over 15 years in a traditional medical practice adhering to the guidelines for treatment set by the American College of Cardiology and American College of Internal Medicine. The goal was to manage lifestyle diseases and adjusting medications and doing procedures to keep the patient functioning at the highest possible level. Medications were added but never taken away and patients were monitored with testing to detect early disease progression. Trying to hold off the family history of diabetes and heart disease, Dr. Dulaney began running marathons. Although she became fit, her lipid profile was not stellar by any means. After reading the book, A Diet for a New America by John Robbins, she became vegan. After watching Forks over Knives she decided to add nutrition education to her medical practice. Then something miraculous happened. Her patients started making dramatic improvements in their diabetes, cholesterol readings, blood pressure, angina, and even their neuropathies. Just by changing their diet, they became symptom free and were able to eliminate many medications even after many years of suffering with lifestyle diseases. Consequently, more nutrition classes were added and in 2017, she completely changed her practice to focus on the reversal of lifestyle diseases through plant based nutrition. She was joined by her daughter, Addie Dulaney Majnaric RDN, and together they are teaching and counseling their members on the benefits of a plant based lifestyle. Her mother joined her locally to help with the nutrition classes and together they began to develop recipes and meal plans that the members could enjoy. Dr. Dulaney loves to create colorful dishes that incorporate greens, grains and vegetables that are pleasing to the eye and the palate. She is still doing the marathons and is even getting faster. She has added ultramarathons and Ironman triathlons to her list of accomplishments and hopes to continue enjoy these events well into advanced age. What a strange turn of events to trade a heart catheter for a spatula. It is only fitting that a strong family history of heart disease and lifestyle disease led to the practice of medicine and a family love of cooking led to the ultimate treatment and cure of many of the lifestyle diseases that plague so many.
