Do not waste your time. I went in with concerns about birth control and weight gain from using it in the past. Mind you, I DID NOT ASK HIM HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT. He proceeded to tell me that hormones do not play a role in weight changes (FALSE) and that I gained weight because I "took too many trips to the fridge". He also told me that by the time I see him again for a follow up, I had better lose 35 pounds and that my husband would call him to thank him.... The entire visit was a joke. He never asked what my profession is (I am a Registered Dietitian) and didn't bother asking me about my eating history (I have a strong history of disordered eating - so his ignorance could have been very damaging to my healing). Not only should he learn to stay in his lane professionally (because he obviously knows nothing about nutrition and weight management) but I think it's also time for him to retire, he obviously is lacking in education and bedside manner.
