Biography:
Palisades High School

Pre-medundergrad BS from UCLA in Biochemistry

M.D. from USC Medical School. now Keck

Internship and residency 3 years at USC in Family Practice 1990. Chief Resident at USC.

Was Board certified, and re-certified,- 3 times every 7 years and finally decided not relevant to quality of care I provide so stopped re-certifying, but still Board Eligible if I ever change my mind if testing changes and actually reflects medical judgement in real life care of patients! I felt the written test had almost no reflection on the decision making and quality of care I provide ! I had highest score in the history of USC Family Practice residency on my first Board certification for a second year resident.

Elected by USC Medical Staff as Chief Resident at USC.

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.

Ultrasounds, vascular studies, cancer screening, every thursday in office.... echocardiograms on Fridays.



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. I treat chronic pain by other means, or refer to pain management specialist if necessary.



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

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


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


Anti-inflammatory supplements ,and optimization of vitamin D3 levels , thyroid, pregnenolone, testsoterone, female hormones when appropriate, and DHEA levels will be addressed.


I look forward to being there for you 247as your private, solo, personal, and caring comprehensive Physician.
