AME in the San Diego area

Dr. Zirpolo is retiring. I'm looking for a good airline pilot oriented AME in or around the San DIego area. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, that's a bummer. I've heard of a guy up in North County.

I've been going all the way to SBA, only because I used to work up there, and didn't want to take my chances with a new guy.

I went to this guy and he is a ex-navy guy. the only thing he does that is weird is the hearing test and a very different eye exam including the normal exams.

He is probably in his mid 60's. He has different ways of doing tests, a more practical version. I should of said 'different' not 'weird'.

He says "Pull my finger."

Then he asks "did you hear that?"
