Your medical records with any doctor are YOUR records, and you can request copies of them (by going to the office and staying there until you have them in your hands). Another doctor will accept the 12 month diet data.
My own spin on this is that some doctors are so FOR wls and others aren't. My own pcp was lukewarm, but she cooperated. Fortunately, I didn't need a referral letter. It is best, though, to surround yourself with support systems in every form.
