SupernaturalWhovian 8 Posted September 24, 2017 Hello all. I live in California, in the San Francisco Bay Area. I haven't had surgery but am in the process. Just wondering if there are any other locals on here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Dust 39 Posted October 1, 2017 hi I am not in the bay area but I am in Northern California, El Dorado County and I am going through Kaiser's South Sacramento facility. How far along in the process are you? I am waiting for a phone appt. with my surgeon coming up this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
