This is accurate I just called to schedule an appointment and they can't take me because I have Healthy Blue. All the others you listed he takes.

Hi brehunnie1985,

Here are the surgeons we know take Medicaid and which ones. Give the Medical Center of LA a call, I understand they take all Medicaid. There is a waiting list but the time will fly by. Keep me posted on how you are doing and if I can help further.

Monika Bowman confirmed Dr. O'Connell takes the following medicaid insurance.

She is very hard to reach as they are doing surgery almost daily. The best time to try and reach Monika is Tues and Weds in the AM.
