Curious in Ca./moving to Or/Id border

Hello Everyone! I am moving to Or/Id border very soon and I had just found a Doc. here to refer me for WLS, and now I must move before I even got started...is it difficult to find help in OR? I don't even know what INS. we'll have available yet...but was wondering If I'll have another big ordeal on my hands there...(I live in the foothills in Cali...seems like everywhere else there are plenty of Doc.s who will refer) anyway, any insight anyone may have would be nice...thanks.

Hi, I don't know exactly where you'll be moving, but the most surgeons seem to be available in Portland. I had my surgery there with Dr. Hong of the Oregon Clinic. He is partner with Dr. Emma Patterson, who is one of the most highly regarded surgeons in the country. You also might look up bariatric surgeons on this site. Hope your move is a good one. Oregon is a beautiful place to live. (From a transplanted southern Callifornian!) Stephanie

Hi Jennifer, I am also moving to Oregon from California. We are retiring and Oregon is a beautiful place to live. Best of luck to you. I am looking for a Kaiser doctor as my primary physician, who knows about WLS, because I am havng my surgery before we move. See ya in Oregon! Joy
