Kaiser offers LESS choices. You are 100% their system.

A system quite frankly that I have not heard too many good things about at all.

For examples:
My friend who has Kaiser cannot get a prescription for Armor Thyroid. Synthroid only so that tells me no go on any "alternative" care.
I cannot see where they even have any hepatologists on staff at all.
