University Childrens Medical Group (UCMG) doctors are affiliated with Childrens Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) and the University of Southern California (USC).
UCMC is a highly respected, well-established academic medical group with a wide range of physicians in a broad variety of pediatric specialty areas.
UCMG physicians in the CHLA Department of Surgery utilize the latest technology and clinical techniques to care for neonates, infants, children and adolescents with surgical problems.
Using a team approach, UCMG physicians will work in partnership with Valley Presbyterian Hospital physicians and specially trained nurses and therapists to provide world-class quality, family-centered pediatric surgical care in a nurturing environment.
The new pediatric surgical service is part of a comprehensive Children's Service at Valley Presbyterian Hospital. Valley Pres also has a level II Pediatric Intensive Care Unit.
