How do I find a NUT near me?

[Linaka 92]

My surgeon has no nutritionist and I really need some help. I have googled but can't seem to find one. Any suggestions?

Try asking your surgeon or PCP for a referral. If your surgeon doesn't have one on staff they should have someone who works with other patients.

@@Inner Surfer Girl What is a PCP? My surgeon's only recommendations is an hour and a half away (not a lot of support there).

Your PCP is your Primary Care Physician (your regular doctor).

My NUT is about an hour away from me (she is at my surgeon's office), so I just see her when I have appointments with him. Otherwise, we have phone meetings and she is also reachable via email.
