All Saddleback Family and Urgent Care Medical Group physicians are board-certified in
family practice.  They are members of
California Emergency Physicians Medical Group




They are on staff at Saddleback Memorial Medical Center.  Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and
Physicians' Assistants (PAs) have been part of our delivery system for the past fifteen
years.  These individuals have completed advanced education and training, and follow
guidelines for diagnosis and treatment that have been developed by our physicians.  NPs
and PAs can provide for many of your healthcare needs, including physical assessments,
well-baby care and the diagnosis and treatment of common illnesses.

The physicians and staff of Saddleback Family and Urgent Care are here when you need
us.  Whether an illness or injury just can't wait or it's simply time to schedule a check-up,
we encourage you to visit us in our Mission Viejo or Lake Forest office.  Because you
never know when you'll need a doctor - it's nice to know we're here.

SERVICE
To fit your insurance needs

Many people are not aware that they can choose one of our physicians under their
managed care contracts to serve as their primary care physician. You will find that
Saddleback Family and Urgent Care Medical Group accepts many of the area's HMO and
PPO plans. Our doctors are listed in your insurance pamphlets as primary care
physicians (PCP).
Our Group is a major participant in Monarch Health Care, a large independent practice
association (IPA) responsible for administering many major health plans in the
Saddleback Valley.

We also provide care under Workers Compensation. If you would like us to care for you
for your work place injuries, you can pre-select us as your Work Comp. PCP. Contact us
or your employer for details.
