Need a new PCP
Nicole, it might be worth a try to call Kaiser and ask them. Personally, I find it a wonderful insurance company and I love that they are a a non-profit health plan.
"Kaiser Permanente is composed of Kaiser Foundation Health Plans (nonprofit, public-benefit corporations), Kaiser Foundation Hospitals (a nonprofit, public-benefit corporation), and the Permanente Medical Groups (for-profit professional organizations)."
Which Kaiser clinic do you want to use? When I came to Colorado, I called the Weight Management counselor at the clinic I wanted to use and asked who he would recommend as WLS-friendly/knowledgeable. After he gave me a few names, I looked at Kaiser's online site where it gives mini-bios on the docs, and went from there. Of course, you also need to check to make sure the doctor is accepting new patients.
