I understand my weight is my problem but having a provider just tell me my options and not be very understanding of my concerns is rude. I felt like my provider was disappointed and disrespectful.

I really appreciate that Dr Hooper doesn't make me feel rushed and will listen and answer any questions I have. It's why I never mind if his office is running behind because I know he's giving each patient the time they need and I'll get my time too. He provided great advice and we have a plan for future treatment that makes sense to me.

My next step is for my appointment to see the nutritionist/dietician, next week. My appointment is a month after I saw Dr. Hooper, which I think is a fairly quick appointment these days.
