Has anyone in NC gone the Dr. B path? Feedback would be nice. I've gone to the site and I did the thing but haven't gotten any calls...do I need to call them?

Oh and btw I've searched and read probably everything here on Dr. B.

Thanks to anyone who has feedback on this one.

Hi Peaches, haven't seen ya in a while.  Sorry, I've never used Doc B or any of his affiliates, so I don't know any helpful info, but I just wanted to say hello.

Because i was one of his patients, i get emails all the time when an new affiliate/s have been added. You can certainly call them if you have questions but for the time being, everyone is just waiting for him to find affiliates in our areas.

How much do you pay Dr. B?  And how much do you pay the affiliate?  I think I read somewhere that after you see the affiliate one time you just have to update with Dr. B.  Is that true?

When I purchased from Dr. B back in teh fall you paid a one time new patient fee of somewhere around $100. Then he would send your prescription to the pharmacy of your choice. After that, everytime you needed a refill, you would fill out an update form (online) and pay around $75 and then he would send a new prescription to the pharmacy. I found that calling them got you quicker service and the  nurse there was really nice. She is actually pretty funny, calling you honey and stuff. Unfortunately there are no affiliates in Washington right now, but she said to keep checking back because they are trying to add more across the country.
I liked this source because you were getting it straight from the pharmacy (I used Rite Aid) so you knew what you were getting was legit. I did find that sometimes one pill would be a little stronger than maybe another in the same bottle. Not sure if they didn't mix well enough before making the pills. I would break my pills in two and take 1/2 about 11 am and then then the other half about 3pm. I tried not to take it later than that because it would keep me awake. Sometimes if I was having a hard time sleeping I would take a melatonin pill which helped me sleep better.
I actually never talked to Dr. B, just his nurse and filled out the online forms. Hope this helps someone else, and here is to hoping that eventually there will be an affiliate in Washington!

What state are you in MYajd69? If you don't mind answering. I wouldn't mind getting back in with Dr. B but when I called Betty she said they didn't have an affiliate yet in my state. Just wondering if they are able to continue the old program with certain states and maybe not others.
I am glad that you are able to still get some help from Dr. B. He was a great resource.

I used to go to Dr. B (a little over a year ago) and really liked it. I got a lecture from my pharmacist about online rx's. I was really embarassed and stopped after 4 months. Dumb pharmacy...

That is why I had my prescription sent to a pharmacy that I don't frequent and is one city over. I don't know if I was just self conscious, but I always felt like they were giving me the once over when I went in and picked up my prescription. So Had my husband do it the next time :)

Hi, I used Dr. B last year until he was shut down and received an email that he was getting affiliates in the Washington DC/Va area but when I called she said she didn't receive the paperwork from the Dr.'s yet. I am just desperate. I would like to go through him again and according to an earlier post they renewed a script for someone out of state, is that correct?
Please any help would be great! I have used phen over the years and have always been successful. I actually have a Dr. here that will precribe it but he charges a few of $150 a month meds. I have never ordered online and a bit scared about getting scammed.

Someone here named "3cheers" had a successful meeting with one of his affiliates in that area. Look up her posts on the subject---I think she offered to PM some of the infomation.
