My Healthcare Practice

In Sacramento, I have 12 associates in the Orthopaedic Department. Being part of a large professional organization affords easy consulting access. It also allows me a more reliable schedule so I can plan more time with my wife and two daughters. We are very busy with swimming, Ballet dancing, and skiing.

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.
