We invite you to contact our Los Angeles or Agoura Hills, CA office to learn more about the benefits of preventive care and how it can support your long-term health.

Dr Escobar is the absolute best. Really works with you to resolve the issue. I recommend him highly. Office staff are great too! Thanks
It's been a long time since I've been to a doctor, if I knew it would be so easy and insightful I would have done it a long time ago! Dr. Escobar was a respectful and informative guy. I felt great after my appointment and will be recommending him to all of my friends. Everyone else at the office made me feel welcomed and where also very kind.
Staff and Dr are very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.
