If was looking for a So Cal lap surgeon... I would go to the original guy, Dr. Wittgrove at Alvarado. He definitely does enough of them to be good at it. Great and informative website too. Check it out at www.gastricbypass.com

I just had a consultation with Dr. Pehrsson in Arcadia, he said he was the only one doing lap in the Los Angeles area, but recognized the good work of the other 2 doctors mentioned. I am currently waiting for surgical approval.

Philippe Quilici in Burbank performs the Lap RNY out of Cedars-Sinai in West Los Angeles. He has been my surgeon in the past on unrelated matters. He will, I trust, be the one performing my WLS. His name and number is available on this site under Find a Doc. I recommend him highly. Good luck!
