Not only have I had tremendous success with this program, but the medical team and staff have treated me with respect and support. This is the only weight loss program that has given me the results I needed to control my diabetes. My experience here has been exceptional and they have given me a better quality of life. There is no doubt in my mind that they have added years to my life. Healthier years! I have been doing their maintenance program for months now and have kept over 80 pounds off.

This has been an absolute horrific situation to deal with. Prior to my visit I asked Maria via email if they excepted my insurance I received an email back stating that yes they excepted my insurance and everything would be covered except for the food. Upon arriving at my appointment, the entire process was so disorganized they immediately took me in and did lab work yet my entire appointment use the lab work that I brought in. they came in the examination room at least five times calling me another patients name the nurse practitioner referred only to the labs that I had provided them with not the ones they had taken. After an hour of jumping back-and-forth from room to room, the appointment was over and on my way out. I was told that I owed $485 when I questioned why I would need to pay for the appointment based on Maria's email earlier in the month that I was covered by insurance I was told that I need to pay it first and then the insurance would reimburse me. while I have the money to be able to do this I let them know that not everyone may be in the same financial situation and that they simply can not run a business this way. After multiple conversations with both Maria and Denise, the office manager I was informed that they had made a claim to my insurance and that I would be receiving a check. It's been two months. My insurance has yet to receive a claim and I have yet to get any paperwork from the Institute of health management so that I can file my own claim. In their itemized bill, not only did they charge me for lab work that they never used or processed but also for a urine sample that I never gave! It's so frustrating to be having to do their job and deal with the billing!
