I'm not in the obese category but have struggled to lose the 30 pounds that keeps me in the unhealthy weight category for many years.
I'm ready to try a medical option - one of the prescription medications for a few months to see how it works for me. My research leads me to qsymia and phentermine. I'm not here to debate the pros & cons of this decision.
What I am here for is a hope to find a recommendation to a reputable doctor to help me make the final decision or to consider other options.
I've visited several medical weight loss clinics, but they all seem like scams to me. The latest one weighed me on a scale that calculated my body fat percentage and handed me a photocopied sheet with monthly plans ranging from $200-300/month for weekly meal planning help, a monthly b12 shot and a 30-day supply phentermine (which would cost me $10 if a doctor simply prescribed it for me - I checked with my insurance and local pharmacy).
I'd prefer to see a doctor who will really take a medical history. Who writes a prescription based on my needs, not on what they have a massive supply of in their back room.
Can anyone recommend a good doctor somewhere in the general region of the South Bay area of Southern California?
Thanks.
