What is Primecare in S.California's criteria for approving WLS?

My request for surgery was denied. I had chosen Dr. LePort in Fountain Valley, CA. as my surgeon and his office was absolutely NO HELP during my appeal(which was also denied). I decided to check out Dr. Terry Sandefer in Corona, CA as he now does the LAP procedure. When I called his office, the lady I spoke with (Vicki) was soooo understanding. She listened to my story for a good 15 minutes and seemed to understand. She told me that Primecare Medical Group has referred a lot of patients to them. So my question is, is there anyone out there that has Primecare in Southern California and if so what is their criteria for WLS? I have my first appt. with Dr. Heather West in Redlands, CA on 3/14. Thanks for your help!
