About the Area

The city of Downey is rooted in culture, history, and community.

Working Here

Our leadership is dedicated to accessibility and a flat hierarchy, building trust between physicians and ancillary staff.

At the same time, wellness—both physical and mental—is emphasized, with regular opportunities to dine out, socialize, and exercise together.

With a high level of tertiary care, one of the region’s largest NICU’s, and an OB and anesthesia staff comprised of full physicians, Downey delivers exemplary service to its diverse, high-risk-profile patient population.
