Certification Period: Your initial certification period will likely be six months. You'll need to recertify regularly (usually every six months) to continue receiving benefits.

Reviews
I called July 9,2020 because my twins pediatrician sent over a script for their formula. I was told a dietitian would call me to let me know what time I could come load my card. No one ever called!!! I called July 10th and the office is closed and my twins have no milk to get through the weekend!!! That is ridiculous on every level!!!!
Just wanted to make an appointment.
Hello I am trying to make appointment
Very helpful staff, The younger dietitians really seem to care about my kids. The foods they give are very helpful to my family, and I like being able to ask questions to people who seem to know. The breastfeeding info was great too.
I have been trying to cancel an appointment for TWO DAYS now. This is ridiculas. Everytime i call i get a recording that says theyre either closed or at lunch. They are not closed. Nor does their lunch hour last two days. I have contacted other agencies in warren i am involved with to possibly find an email. To no avail. This is ridiculas! Why do women with children who need assistence need this added stress! We dont.
every time i call to make an appointment, the lady i speak with is super rude. she answers the phone every single time and always has an attitude. it makes me uncomfortable for when i actually need to go in there.
I have been calling every day, many times a day for weeks trying to get an appointment for my daughter and always always reach a recording! saying closed or at lunch! No excuse for it!
