Nutrionist VS Medical Diet

[CTMommy22 1]

My doctor started me on a medically suprives diet in order to get my surgery date by August, but now my insurance company is making me see a nutrionist 6x before my surgery, at this rate I wont get my date untill considering i had to book an apointment out with her 2 months...

I have 75% of my pre-op done expect the nutrionist and thats the one thing thats holding me back, and its super frustrating

anybody else fun into problems with nurtrionist vs medically supervised diet?

I didn't have to do a medically supervised diet but I would think that the nutritionist would be working with you on how and what you will be eating after surgery (at least, that's what mine did...and still does)

My insurance only wants 6x nutrionist,cardiology,pulmonary,psch pre op... Ive alreay done blood work,chest xray, gi series, pap smear, pelvic ultrasound per my surgeon.

I havent even seen the nutrionist yet, and i booked my apointment in april... She was booked out super far, at this rate i wont shave surgery till christmas.
