Feel like I just got ripped off

I got a lot more at my visit. And insurance paid for it.

I still thought it was a waste of time, though.

Maureen, I'm in NYC too. Who is your surgeon?

Dr. Yatco at Lenox Hill.  My psych eval was with Dr. Rivera.

I have Dr. Roslin and I saw Dr. Rivera too...but she did talk to me quite a bit. Weird that you had that experience. And why $350? Was that including the nutrition visit and doc consultation too? Because I only had to pay $150 cash to see Dr. Rivera.

90% of the people that overeat and are obese are that for a reason.  If you don't deal with your feelings you will transfer the addiction from over eating to something else.  One visit to the psch is not the answer.  When I open my home to take patients from the Obesity Goodbye Center I want to give them a since of self worth as who they are this very moment - not skinny.  We are all God's children and he loves us all the same.  What emotional trauma people go through are from people not from God.  If we can know that throughout our being then we are able to move on and be who He made us to be not what life did to us.  I came to Mexico to have my surgury and didn't have the play the insurance games and still have not regretted it.  Good Luck to you all and I pray that you find yourself as to who you really are underneath the garbage...
