Has anyone had any specialty work done in the Kaiser Stockton offices on West Lane?

I have to have a dacryocystorhinostomy performed on my right eye. That's surgery to create a new tear drainage duct.

The Sacramento Opthalmologic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery office is wait listing with a backlog of a minimum of 6 months. So I'm looking at other offices in NorCal.

I've just never been to any of the Stockton offices for any services. Sure it's stigma but it is Stockton. Feedback about the location?

Regarding the surgery, has anyone here had it performed?

** This isn't short but I'm getting desperate here.

​

I just found my roommate (my ex (61f), it's long story) semi-comatose in our front yard with her BG just under 30. And declining. It required a call to 911 to ensure all bases were covered in correcting her BG. I've managed such crises in the past but she wasn't responding to my attempts to raise her BG. EMTs gave her 50g card IV.

​

I'm pretty confident working managing her BG with her old tSlim but am asking for some handholding here. I'm dealing with a lot of complacency that's putting her at risk and is straining our relationship. Before anyone comments, her healthcare plan SUCKS when it comes to communication, competency, and training. Sutter in Nor Cal

​

My roommate/ex just upgraded from the t-Slim to the Omnipod to run along side her Dexcom G7. A supposed upgrade from the t-Slim with catheters she kept pulling out, the OmniPod is a Godsend IF we can get it to work with her phone. So she can share BG monitoring with me. Note, she's extremely hyper/hypo unaware and can be too complacent with her health. Her: "I've been diabetic for 40 years...."

​

​

She's currently using a handheld monitoring device instead of Android apps. I'm so frustrated with her knowledge of how her devices (pump, sensor, mobile devices). I'm asking the experts here. Her care provider is totally screwed up when it comes to device coverage, compatibility, and training.

​

​

She upgraded her phone to the Samsung S26 in hopes of finally having mobile access to both Omnipod and G7. We've had nothing but headaches. What device is supposed to connect with what? To monitor and manage BG???

​

Last time we looked the Omnipod app wouldn't install on Android 15, Samsung One UI 8.5.

​

So, I'm asking for some handholding so I can avoid lengthy research.

​

Compatibility of the apps with Android? Connectivity between devices (CGM, sensor, phone). I'd love to get real monitoring ability on her Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 as that was primary reason for it's purchase.

​

​

Talk to me. I'm ready to give up here. Please be kind to a noob trying to help.
