New to Washington State... looking for doctor/surgeon.

Hello all, I am not new to the WL journey but I have not had WLS yet. I have been a member on obesityhelp for many years and something always ends up coming up where I can't get approved or end up losing a bunch of weight on my own, and then of course end up gaining it all back plus some.

I just moved to Port Angeles WA and am hoping to find a doctor closer than Seattle. Any suggestions are helpful. Also can add me as friend if you would like. I am also concerned about Washington Apple Medicaid... does anyone know what their requirements are? I have not been to a doctor in many years and so I don't have years of weight ins or anything like that... how many months of doctor followed diets and programs need to be done? So many questions..... I have watched the before/after pics for years and it is just amazing... I am currently sitting at about 300lbs and am 5'6-5'7... so my BMI is over 40.

Anyhow thanks to anyone who has read this and thanks in advance for leaving a comment.
