I'm sure you read all the posts on this forum and realize how rare your situation is. At my HMO Atkin is anathema. I posted my excellent lab results on their forum with credit to Atkin and they simply deleted my post. My relatives including a nutritionist and an MD are steadfast against Atkin without giving any justification, just name calling. They say all research is tainted and my personal experience is anecdotal, if they pay any attention at all. Meanwhile several, including the MD, have diabetes and are rapidly deteriorating from it. They keep getting fatter on low fat diets with lots of medications.
You are very fortunate to have that doctor.
