Adult obesity in Oakland is 27.6% (CDC PLACES 2023). That shows up in wound offloading and in joint-preservation volume — not as a slogan. CDC PLACES (2023, crude) estimates 11.4% of adults in Oakland have diagnosed diabetes — 0.6 points below the U.S. 12% figure.

If you operate in California and another MAC state, say it on the first call. JE will not port 1:1. We would rather split utilization than watch a sister clinic copy Oakland tickets into the wrong jurisdiction.
