Our main office in Bakersfield is conveniently located in the Riverwalk Medical Plaza across the street from California State University, Bakersfield. We are affiliated with the Millennium Surgery Center, a fully licensed Medicare certified facility. Most patients requiring surgical procedures are able to receive care in an ambulatory surgical setting rather than in a hospital.
