I just go to my regular doctor. If you're at your OB-GYN and that person is concerned about your weight, you can get a prescription there too, but it makes more sense to go to your GP.

To advance and support the physician’s role in treating overweight patients.
The American Society of Bariatric Physicians (ASBP) is a professional medical society of licensed physicians who specialize in the medical treatment of obesity (bariatrics) and its associated conditions. Formed in 1950, ASBP has been instrumental in offering practical information that doctors can use in their bariatric practices, and supporting public policies to prevent overweight and obesity.

you have to go to your doctor family that is, they can write prescriptions for anything, and if he or she cant then they will refer to the right place in order to get it, but for insurance purposes first go to the family MD

Go to the one you'd most feel comfortable speaking with about your condition.
