About Daina A. Danovitch
It was a natural choice for Dr. Danovitch to go into medicine. Her grandmother was a general practitioner and her mother is a pediatrician, making her a third generation female physician. Dr. Danovitch grew up helping both physicians in their offices and rounding in the hospital with them. Her close relationship with her grandmother influenced her choice to specialize in geriatrics, in addition to family medicine. The aspect of practicing medicine that Dr. Danovitch loves most is learning from her patients' life experiences. Her favorite vacation is going home to Chicago where she grew up, spending time with her parents and five siblings. In her spare time, Dr. Danovitch likes to hike, especially the Westridge trail leading to San Vicente Mountain. She also enjoys cooking and is working on incorporating more of the Mediterranean diet into family meals. Her signature dish is teriyaki salmon steamed in foil and served with sesame cabbage---a healthy dish her kids love.

Dr Danovitch is consistently available and attentive. I have never had a bad experience with her
Providence Patient
Everyone and everything is always wonderful. Usually I get seen within five minutes of my appointment, but this time it took one full hour before the doctor actually came in to see me. I waited in the waiting room for a very long time, then I waited in the exam room for a long time.

Dr. Danovitch is always helpful; it is no wonder she has no room in her schedule for new patients!
Providence Patient
All of my doctors, beginning with Dr. Danovitch, are outstanding and provide excellence of care that is exceptional. After 40 some years with UCLA health system, I changed to Providence because Dr Danovich moved and she had been my primary physician for only a few months, but I wanted to follow her. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Dr. Danovitch is intelligent and up to date with medical information which she communicates clearly. She is compassionate and listens. As a retired physician, I know what qualities are needed to constitute an really good phycician. Dr. Danovitch fits In that category. And BTW, I would and have recommended her to my friends.
