i called and set up my consult with the program coordinator and when i told her i didnt have one she hesitated..i have insurance but i just havent been to a doctor..(i dont like to go unless i absolutely have to)..if i have to have one i can get one..was just wondering if it was totally necessary

They will probably insist that you get one. For me, they said it is essential if you are on any meds. They do not like to do the pharmacy side of it. Med dosages change as you lose weight. But every situation is different and every insurance co has different requirements. All the best to you in your journey.
