I've heard from a lot that went to Fresno. I live Redding so it'd be quite a bit longer to drive to Fresno. Thanks

How were you allowed to go from Sac to Fresno? I live in Bakersfield and I have heard good things about Fresno. I would love to go to Fresno for my WLS.

I live in Fresno and having my surgery in Fresno. Which surgeon did you use? My surgery is June 7.

[sweet 98]

I was referred to my surgeon in Fresno, by my regular physician.

I had Dr. JuaReZ

Sweet and Odiemom - Thanks for the replies. The Kaiser process is a little confusing right now. I hope your surgeries go well and I look forward to following your journeys.

Yes kaiser is totally different. I don't know how kaiser works - I have an HMO through blue cross.

I went to Dr Machado's seminar and she was very impressive. I just decided that I didnt want all of the red tape required by my insurance (BCBS) and switched to Kaiser. I joined in Jan, met w surgeon in Feb and had surgery in May. She would have been my surgeon, however, if I had not made the switch.

I have the new doctor in their service- only because he was the only one with office hours on Friday I work a 4/10 schedule an hour away from Fresno so needed all my appointments on Friday if possible. His name is Ghiassi and I'm sue will be as good as either Higa and Boone. I love the feeling their office gives off. So far very happy with service and professional behavior of all the staff.

I have met him before he is a partner with Boone and Higa. I love how they (the nurses) treat u like family. Especially Vanessa she is the nurse that works on Fridays I also have all my appointments on Friday.

Dr. Boone did my surgery (ALSA). I was very comfortable with the entire staff.

My daughter used Kaiser over 5 years ago and my granddaughter used them about 2 months ago.

I had the good luck to have Dr Machado in Sacramento at Mercy San Juan. The greatest experience I could have had considering the procedure. She is just great, the best in the area as I am told by all the nurses I encountered. Use her if you can!
