@kimbies1204 If I surgeon told me what yours told you about "what your body does with implants is out of my hands" I'd be calling an attorney. I've never heard anything so untrue and so irresponsible. You are his patient. His job is do, first, do not harm, and then do everything in his power to heal you. Is there another Kaiser hospital you can go to?

Hmmm...I’ve had others tell me to get an attorney as well. Sigh...he did both of my shoulder surgeries and was great. This time, I’m greatly disappointed and actually angry now. He shouldn’t be able to just wash his hands of me, and that’s the gesture he used when he said that. Problem is his group has the monopoly on Orthopaedic care in the area and the few I’ve reached out to, won’t see me.
Kinbies, Isn't it time to talk to an INSURANCE COMMISSIONER in your state? Right now is open enrollment - Time to Switch?

Sometimes Kaiser can b very good. and often they r very bad. Know of 1 older women that did not get good care until her adult children took her. Another one from Pacific Palisades won't go for help because Kaiser keeps her waiting over an hour. Another women w Kaiser (in her 50's) died of Chrons disease. Good luck, I would never sign w them.
