I have lost 30 lbs on my own in the last 9 months through diet and nutrition. I have at least another 40-50 to lose to even get into the healthy BMI weight category.
I am looking for a doctor in the KC metro area who is willing to prescribe Phentermine (appettite suppressant). So far, I have only found listings for clinics and bariatric doctors specializing in weight loss surgery. But I was wondering if some of the clinics/doctors that specialize in surgery also prescribe/promote other areas/types of weight loss? (Thinking they may use tactics getting someone ready for surgery, etc.)
If you know of a traditional "diet doctor" in the KC area, or have a better idea of how I could find one, please post. Thank you.
Of course, I know I can ask my PCP, however, I just feel she would not support this as she has done nothing to help w/weight loss thus far. And being that I suffer from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and Insulin Resistance I feel a little 'help' is warranted.
