A member asked:

How do i find a dietitian that takes medicaid? where do i look online i've gained a lot of weight on anti psychotics i was prescribed them for sleep

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Call the offices: It is probably simplest to look up nutritionists on line or in the phone book. After that, call their offices and ask. Many won't take medicaid. Some may have a sliding scale or do some pro bono (free) work. The very best to you.
