I am in Bakersfield and I am sorry to say I have not been able to find any here. There is only one for Kaiser patients only, the other one was cancelled due to family issues with the leader. If you hear of one let me know.

Topic: Out of town traveling to see Dr K in CA- help please

Hello all,

I am new and I am looking into traveling to see Dr K in CA.  I don't have a date yet, but I want to prepare.  I am traveling alone, he wants me to stay about one week post op,  does anyone have any ideas on where I can get someone to pick my up from surgery, check up on me, etc?  Would the hospital have this information?  Are there agencies?  I would be staying in a local hotel.   Any help would be appreciated.  I am going to post in DS forum too.

Maria

Topic: RE: clinics that accept medical for bypass surgery

give St Mary Medical Center in Long Beach a try. their bariatric doctors are also affiliated with other centers. i know some years ago they accepted it although Medi-Cal patients may be limited, and have a longer wait for a surgery date. for various reasons
