I went to Dr. You at Franklin Square Hospital.The 6mth nutrition program that my insurance required cost $300. You have until you finish the class to pay. If your insurance only requires a 3mth program it's $150. The fees are only for the nutritional stuff everything else was covered under my insurance. I have friends who went elsewhere so i know a little bit about other programs too.
Johns Hopkins nutrition program cost $35 per visit (monthly)
GBMC has no fees

Topic: RE: did or does your surgeon

Dr. Von Reuden, Catonsville, MD. Has a $950 fee. I sort of "shopping around" now. Has anyone used his program?
His covers all the visits for the nutritionist, and exercise instructor, classes, and Psychologist.

Is this still a little "pricey"??

I have decided to and beginning my journey for WLS. I would like to hear from some people in Maryland, And if their Doctors have Program fees, how much were they? what did they include? Trying to figure out if it's more beneficial to go this route.

The panni was covered by insurance since it was medically warranted. It took about two weeks to get approval.
