Our physicians have been providing excellent patient care for our community for over 40 years.

We are committed to continuing with this mission by caring for every patient as an individual, and treating the whole person rather than a set of symptoms. We believe that by nurturing an ongoing relationship with our patients, we can work together to build a lifetime of wellness.

Santa Monica Family Physicians offer a comprehensive range of primary care services. We will take care of you and your family -- from newborns to grandparents, with the goal of optimizing your long-term well-being, and offering comfort and care when you need it.

Our offices are conveniently located throughout the Westside, in Santa Monica and Pacific Palisades. We offer online scheduling and other tools to simplify your access to quality healthcare. You will learn more about these tools when visiting our website over the coming months.

We look forwarding to partnering with you in your care.

We look forward to welcoming you into our practice. Getting to know you plays an important role in treating you when you are ill and helping you achieve optimal health when you’re not.

Our Physicians have been caring for families on the Westside and beyond for over 30 years.  As we begin a new era partnering with Providence Saint John’s Health Center, our intention is to accept most major health plans so our patients can continue to receive excellent care from the doctor they know and trust.

Please note that certain health plans will automatically keep you with the same primary care physician which means you will continue to receive care from us in our new location without any disruptions.  When you click on your health plan name below, a window will expand revealing important information about keeping your doctor at Santa Monica Family Physicians.

The most important action item on your part in most cases is to call the member services number on the back of your insurance card to make the change.

We also encourage you to visit this web page frequently for insurance plan updates regarding existing and new health insurance plans we will accept.  Please click on the insurance carrier name below to learn more about that plan.

The doctors have chosen Saint John’s and Providence because they feel that this affiliation will allow them to simplify your access to quality health care.

Some of the physicians in this group have had ties to Providence Saint John’s and to our community for a very long time. We like the community-based physician culture found at Saint John’s and the ease of navigating the campus. Our patients will have access to a number of world-renowned specialists for orthopedic, heart, cancer, neuroscience and other specialty care. Additionally we have access to the Saint John's Cancer Institute where physician researchers are dedicated to finding a cure for cancer. Clinical trials are available through this institute.

No, they are not staying at the current address, but will not be moving too far away!

SMFP takes Aetna, Anthem BC, Blue Shield, Cigna, Choice Care (Humana), Coventry, Galaxy, Health Net, Interplant/Health Smart, Medicare, Multiplan, Motion Picture, Oscar, PHN (Providence Health Network), Medicare and United Healthcare. The group is actively negotiating more plans and will continue to update this list on our website as new plans are added. Please visit our website on a regular basis for the most current updates.

Our goal is that you can continue to keep your long-standing relationship with your doctor. Please contact us should you have any questions or need help navigating the insurance process. We will be actively updating our website providing new information that may be useful to you, so we invite you to visit this page and look for updates.

Your physician will utilize Epic, an electronic health records program that is used throughout Providence and at Cedars, UCLA and Kaiser. This allows your care team to pick up right where you left off, with your most current medical record. If you're not with one of these providers, we'll have to establish a new medical record for you in our practice. The good news is with EPIC, you will also be able to view your lab and test results through an online portal called MyChart.

We want you to continue relationships with the specialists you’re most comfortable with. If you do want to make a change, Providence Saint John’s Health Center has nationally renowned specialists in a number of areas, including but not limited to cancer, orthopedics, neurology and cardiology.

Extended care will be offered later in the year. Keep visiting our website for updated information.
