Hello, I'm Rodney Loeffler, M.D. I was born and raised in the Sacramento area. I graduated from Jesuit High School in Carmichael and attended the University of California, Davis.

I have been with Kaiser Permanente since 1993, which has given me many opportunities to do what I like best in emergency medicine; namely, to take care of whatever emergencies may enter our doors and to pursue my interests in other areas of medical care. Besides caring for our patients in the Emergency Department, I was chief of our Emergency Department, working on issues involving quality in our department, advancing our approaches to heart attacks, heart failure, and pneumonia, in addition to reviewing individual cases of emergency care.

I have a strong interest in emergency care outside of the hospital, I am a member of the Sacramento County EMS committee dealing with pre-hospital emergency care, as well as being a physician for the local Urban Search and Rescue Task Force. I am also an examiner of physicians seeking certification as specialists by the American Board of Emergency Medicine.

My wife and I are both proud to be physicians here at Kaiser, South Sacramento, where we can give the best care to our patients. Our two teenage daughters provide all the excitement we need!

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
