Yesterday I posted here on the List stating that I'd been told by Kaiser Permanente that Dr. David Pitts would no longer be performing collagen injections into the vocal cords at the Kaiser Metropolitan facility (in Los Angeles) because Dr. Pitts now practices out of the Kaiser Baldwin Park facility - which, while still in the Greater Los Angeles area is only slightly closer to my home San Fernando Valley home than the moon. I spent the morning calling all the Kaiser facilities even remotely closer to my home then Baldwin Park looking for an MD who did the collagen injections, with no luck. Finally, I called Dr. Pitts himself, telling him that I was VERY upset at not being able to continue the beneficial collagen injections, and asked him for a referral within the Kaiser system, EUREKA!! Dr. Pitts said he has been training Kaiser's Dr. Lim in this procedure and Dr. Lim will be starting to perform the collagen injections towards the end of September at the Kaiser Metropolitan facility.
