Reply to "ACEs-Savvy ADULT Primary Care Doc in Oakland or Richmond Kaiser?"

Anna,

I hope it's not too weird for me to reply to this two years later, and that it's OK for me to use this forum. I came across your post while doing a web search for another ACEs Connection issue. I'm curious, for several reasons if you ended up finding an ACEs-informed PCP in either of those Kaisers. I'm an internist in the Sutter system, now in Sacramento, but who grew up in Oakland, and whose dad spent his career working as an internist at Kaiser Oakland. I have become consumed with ACEs since I got bitten by the bug a year ago, and it has transformed how I practice medicine. A colleague and I have made it one of our missions to raise awareness for ACEs in the medical community, as the awareness is dismally low. We've mainly focused on our Sutter partners, but I'm curious as to what the awareness is within other health systems, such as Kaiser. If you have been fortunate enough to find an ACEs-aware PCP, I'd love to connect with them.

By the way, I very much appreciate your blogs and website; it is included on my handout that I give to my patients who have been affected by ACEs.

Again, I hope this forum is appropriate to use. Thanks!
