BIO:

M.D. USC Medical School. now Keck

Internship and residency 3 years at USC in Family Practice 1990

Chief resident at USC

In practice for 34years.

I am available 247 by my personal cell phone, as well as through my emergency office line.

I have found this only possible to do in the context of my solo VIP Practice.

Pay for services at time of visit.

After hours appointments available at increased charge. Telemedicine appointments readily available when appropriate.


VIP means immediate response to your needs.

coordination of care, same day or next day appointments, personalized old fashion medicine.
EKG's, xrays, IV fluids, IM antibiotics, blood tests IN OFFICE. Also ultrasoiunds every thursday in office.

We will bill your insurances a courtesy after each visit. Or, you can bill insurance yourself which occasionally people want to do.

Many patient's do get money refunded by their insurance plan.

Usually same day appointments, which last as long as necessary to address the problems most important. I get to know each patient as an individual. There are are no patients who have the exact "same" issues.

I am particularly interested in psychopharmacology . I diagnose and treat many simple and complex patients with depression, anxiety disorders, panic attacks, OCD, bipolar disorder, ADD, and with mixture of co-existing mood disorders. I DO NOT prescribe ANY OPIATES or SOMA.

In the increasingly -challenging and restrictive area of chronic Pain Management I am NO LONGER accepting new pain management patients in need of any amount of Narcotic pain meds, SOMA, or more than small doses of benzodiazepines even if your previous Doctor was prescribing them.

My interests in "Rejuvenative medicine", and disease prevention are very strong, .

Treating chronic fatigue has proven quite helpful for hundreds of my patients.

Testosterone therapy in men and women is still a hugely neglected area of medicine, but in which I treat many patients.

My goal for you is quality and quantity of a well-balanced life, full of happiness , and healthy outlets for stress.

MEDICAL WEIGHT LOSS!!!! Phentermine plus topamax, contrave, injectables such as Wegovy, Mounjaro, keto diet, etc.

IV multiviamin infusions, weekly B12-Bcomplex injections available. EKG, X-rays in office!

Optimizing Low growth hormone levels are a special interest area of mine

Anti-inflamatory supplements ,and optimization of vitamin D3 levels and DHEA levels will be addressed.
