SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — When faced with a hopeless medical diagnosis, a second opinion could save a person's life. Doctors at UC San Diego Health hope to make getting a second opinion easier and more affordable through their new Neurosurgery Second-Opinion Program. "They either feel affirmed in the clinical opinion they've already received or maybe have access to a surgical treatment that might not otherwise be offered to them," said Dr. Alex Khalessi, Professor and Chair of Neurological Surgery at UC San Diego Health. Through a secure online platform, UC San Diego Health offers easy access to world-renowned neurosurgeons through the program.The service costs patients 0, which Dr. Khalessi says is a few hundred dollars less than other programs nationwide. He says their goal is to make the program accessible to those who need it, even those thousands of miles away. "This is really an opportunity I think to give patients who are dealing with a problem they've never had to think of before a day in their lives, access to a person who spends every day thinking about that problem," said Dr. Khalessi.San Diego resident Glenn Callan credits a second opinion from Dr. Khalessi's team for saving his wife Patricia's life.While in remission for breast cancer doctors at their original San Diego hospital discovered a large tumor in Patricia's brain, but said the tumor was inoperable. "Devastating. You just think you escape this and then have this metastatic cancer go to the brain, it's unbelievable, surreal," said Glenn.Rather than accepting the original diagnosis, the Callan's went to UC San Diego Health, where doctors successfully removed the tumor."Things that would have been a death sentence or permanently disabling even five years ago, now we have a lot of very effective options to treat those problems," said Dr. Khalessi. The Neurosurgery Second-Opinion Program is available now for patients.UC San Diego Health hopes to soon pilot similar programs for oncology and orthopedics. 2008

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - With seniors across the state being told to stay “self-isolated,” local governments and non-profits are working to make sure basic needs are taken care of. Serving Seniors, a non-profit that serves meals to low-income seniors, says it has closed all of its senior centers and congregate meals. Instead, it has ramped up its home meal delivery operation and to-go services. “We have the capacity but it is causing some significant logistical challenges,” said Paul Downey, CEO of Serving Seniors. Anyone in San Diego county over the age of 60 is eligible. To receive meals, you can call 619 235-6572 and select option one. Or you can send an email to meals@servingseniors.org. For those who would like to help, you can donate on their website. The County of San Diego is also working to connect isolated seniors with services they may need, including meal deliveries. The easiest way to get help is to call 2-1-1 or visit their website 211sandiego.org.RELATED: How to help seniors under "self-isolation"Other groups have created outreach programs, like Social Bridge. They are seeking volunteers who are able to check-in on senior neighbors to make sure their needs are met while staying at home. 1222

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - Wednesday, a San Diego City Council Infrastructure Committee was briefed on the progress of a downtown building that’s presently costing taxpayers millions and may end up costing tens of millions more.The 19-story building at 101 Ash Street was supposed to be about saving taxpayers money and improving communication among city employees. But some council members say it’s becoming a symbol for just the opposite."What people need to remember is this is tax-payer money," says Councilman David Alvarez. "That could be used for a thousand different projects like streets and sidewalks."RELATED: Study: Housing in San Diego suburbs cost more than downtownThe building was acquired by the city in 2016 for million to allow the city to avoid future increases in rent anticipated downtown.A city staff report estimated renovation costs to make the building move-in ready at million. The report also projected long-term savings for the city of more than million."We were given maps, we were given spreadsheets on the savings," says Alvarez.Flipping through a staff report, Alvarez says the projections were laid out in detail and signed by the city’s real estate department and chief operating officer. On Wednesday, many of the people behind the report attended a committee hearing to explain how a million bill became million.RELATED: San Diego City Council committee addresses need for middle-income housingIn pre-meeting statements shared by Councilwoman Barbara Bry, the staff pointed to discoveries of problems with the plumbing, air conditioning, and electricity that would need attention on all 19 floors.Information Alvarez says he would have liked up front before the building was purchased. He says his goal now is to get to the bottom of the misinformation and try to stem the ongoing expenditures."How do we move quickly to stop the bleeding. In that, the taxpayers aren’t continuing to be on the hook for an empty building."Ultimately, the committee voted to support appropriations of .2 million to million to support the new budget adjustments. Councilman Alvarez was the only dissenting vote.  2185
