How do I get my underage daughter breast reduction surgery? (Medi Cal)

ktmyr
She's almost sixteen with D's that are already sagging and stretching skin. She's 5'6" and weighs about 150 lbs. Besides her chest there's no spot on her body with any excess body fat. She has been diagnosed with scoliosis and complains daily of back pains. She's been to physical therapy and it didn't help much. Despite all this we've been told by her primary care physician that she doesn't need it and the size of her breasts aren't an issue. I don't know what to do.
