Bernard Elpedes, D.O.
" My genuine interest in Family Medicine began during my clinical rotations in
medical school. I was fortunate to be trained by very knowledgeable and
compassionate Family Physicians. I really admired how they treat their patients
beyond the scope of their ailments. These doctors truly related to their patients.
Considering my own fundamental values and what I find most rewarding, I knew I
had to become a Family Physician."
Board certified in family practice, Dr. Elpedes received his medical degree
from Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences in 1995. He completed
his residency at Pacific Hospital in Long Beach where he was chief resident. As
an osteopathic Physician, Dr. Elpedes is qualified to use musculoskeletal
manipulation to enhance the treatment of his patients when appropriate and
indicated.
