My wife used to have Kaiser, and they almost killed her. She had pain in her abdomen, but they told her it wasn't her appendix. They kept her in the hospital while trying to figure out what it was. The next day her abdomen felt better because her appendix had burst, but she had a high fever. The day after that her body was in toxic shock, and she was near death. Finally a doctor with a clue saw her, realized the problem, and operated on her. It was weeks before she was out of the hospital, and a couple years before she was back to normal. If they had operated on her when she first came in she would have gone home the next day.

She started a new job shortly after she was out of the hospital, and though Kaiser was one of her choices she didn't choose it. I'm sure there are good doctors at Kaiser, but there are at least some that are clueless.
