Can anyone recommend a surgeon for orchiectomy in the Southern California area?

Hey, I'm sorry if this still isn't the right subforum yet (when you're new here, this site is like a maze that never ends), but someone advised me to just throw spaghetti at the wall with the general Transition forum and then let a mod or community advice guide it to where it best belongs. :p

Anyway, I would like to get orchiectomy done. I'm aware of practitioners all over the USA, but I've had a very difficult time finding any information on anyone doing it in the Los Angeles / Ventura / Southern California region. So, I'm curious if anyone here has any advice about surgeons in this region who provide the service.

I'm in a position right now where travel would be difficult for me (not impossible, just difficult), so that's why I'm so keen on someone within driving distance so I can be in and out in a day, without airflights, hotels, monitoring periods, etc. I have all my stuff in order, letters, hormone therapy, blahblah — that's all ancient history, I just need to find someone who does it locally.

However, if anyone has had orchiectomy done in general (with any doctor, anywhere) and would like to offer advice or recommendations, I'm still quite open to your commentary. :)

Thanks!
