CPCMG joins a physician network of more than 1,450 UC San Diego Health providers who provide primary, pediatric and specialty care for every stage of life.
“We are thrilled to welcome CPCMG to the growing UC San Diego Health network of providers. Together, we will best serve the needs of the community by providing safe, high-quality care in a variety of convenient locations,” said Patty Maysent, CEO, UC San Diego Health. “Through this affiliation, and our current pediatric practices, we will improve the health of the community with a focus on the primary care needs of our region’s youngest patients.”
“CPCMG’s mission is to deliver the healthiest cohort of kids into adulthood,” said Adam Breslow, MD, MBA, CEO of CPCMG. “We are proud to serve in all communities in San Diego and Southern Riverside Counties.
