Post Looking for Primary Care that is advocate of Gastric Bypass

Hello,

I'm new here so please bear with me.

I've been trying to locate a primary care physician in the San Diego, California area that is an advocate of gastric bypass as a tool for weight loss.

My BMI is 50 and I do have co-morbidity issues. My current doctor recommended the surgery but my previous insurance denied the request. I am changing insurance to Blue Cross California Care on January 1, 2005 and was hoping someone or several someones in the San Diego, CA area could give me the name of an physician that they have worked with that views gastric bypass as a viable option. Someone-a primary care physician-that would refer me to Dr. Callery's office.

If anyone can help me with this, I would really appreciate it. Thanking you in advance.
