please - input on SoCal Kaiser choice

Hi 

I've been lurking and learning for a while. I finished a six month required program under blue shield, only to change insurance to Kaiser a week later. So, starting over again with the options program. My PCP is in Santa Clarita, i did my orientation in panorama city, I'm taking the options classes in Palmdale. I live closest to Bakersfield. I need to decide where I am going to have the surgery, so I can schedule the preop appointments. 

 

I'm looking for feedback on Kaiser west los Angeles, Bakersfield, or Palmdale. I know the Palmdale surgeon is contracted to Dr John Yadegar, don't know the other surgeons. Can I get opinions fromthose who have used these facilities? I'd very much appreciate it. Thanks.

Hi Briardlady,

I don't have any personal experience with the area and or program you are talking about. Try posting on the California Weight Loss Forums.  We also have a link to the surgeons' profile you mentioned.

John Yadegar, M.D. Bariatric Surgeon - ObesityHelp   If you are considering using Dr. Yadegar as your surgeon. I highley recomend him. He is the best surgeoun I have ever meet. I wish he could do my tummy tuck. www.obesityhelp.com/profiles/bariatric-surgeon/dr-john-yadegar/

 

We look forward to your updates
