Question:
WLS friendly PCP in Sacramento?

Does anyone know of a WLS friendly PCP who accepts medi-cal in the Sacramento area?    — [Anonymous] (posted on September 4, 2001)

Tom Hopkins, MD (Yes, the doctor on channel 3)is a WLS friendly PCP. He is an internist and bariatric (specializing in the health problems of the obese) physician. I do not know if he takes Medi-cal. His number is 920-1200. Call and ask. Also, as UCDavis takes Medi-cal, you might call the surgeon's office--his name is Bruce Wolfe, I believe and ask for a referral to a PCP that way. Good Luck
