Default PCOS doctor in Kaiser, So. Cal??

Does anyone know of a PCOS-frendly endo, OB-gyn, whatever within Kaiser? I have not had much success so far. Thanks

There are 28 PCOS doctor listings for California in the directory here: http://www.soulcysters.org/browse.php?cat=52

You might try calling them to see if they take Kaiser...someone is bound to!

Good Luck!

Thanks, I did look, but Kaiser is not like a regular insurance plan, It is a self-contained HMO. It has its own clinics and hospitals, so I need to find someone within Kaiser or pay full fee by myself. Thanks anyway.

Valerie,

I live in Azusa, Ca. and have Kaiser Permanente as my health care provider. When I started my infertility I was seeing a Dr. at Kaiser In Baldwin Park, I was ther through out my Clomid cycles, and then got transfered to Bellflower to see an infertility specialist. The Kaiser at Bellflower and Fontana are the only ones in this area that have an infertility department that works with patients doing injectables. Please let me know if you want me to recommend some great Dr. i've worked with.

Yes, I would love the name of who you are seeing, if you think they're good. I generally go to Kaiser Sunset, but I would be willing to go to Bellflower or Baldwin Park if I need to. If you don't want to post the doctor's name, you can certainly email me at vharragin@aol.com. Thank you so much.
