I am new to this site and just wanted to introduce myself.

I am working with Dr Malley out of Kansas City (anyone else use him?) and also know that I have at least 6 months before I can be approved for my band. Insurance requires once per month visits with a dietitian for 6 months prior to having approval.

Let me know how you did with this situation and any advice would be great! I am excited to meet everyone and offer my support as well.

Hey livn4thm :welcome:. I'm in Ohio and doing my 6 months dietician visits now. I did 6 months supervised diet with my PCP and then the insurance told me this . The center I am using has a dietican on staff so I just went with her. I did have to pay $200.00 out of pocket but it really is worth every penny. I have 2 months down and 4 to go.

Good luck
