Re: SF Bay Area Kaiser doc -- Jaffe

[Guest guest]

I'm not familiar with Dr. Jaffe, but the Kaiser website says his specialty is

" Endocrine Diabetes/Metabolism " and that he's at the So. San Francisco

facility. Since your information shows he prescribes Armour, it sounds like he's

a

possibility of a doctor worth seeing. (I've provided his Bio below.)

I'm in San and my Endo only grudgingly gives me Armour -- and I'm

currently 1/2 grain higher than my prescription . . . supplementing with

NatureThroid. If you check out Dr. Jaffe and he works out, please let me know.

At some

point to get I may well need to switch Endos.
