Honor Your Caregiver

Antonio Escobedo MD

Internal Medicine
PIH Health Physicians

In my 34 years of working for the County of Los Angeles, my wife and I both had Kaiser. When I retired, I switched insurance and decided to go with PIH since we live in Whittier. I was quite nervous about switching health plans since Kaiser was all we knew. I read Dr. Escobedo's profile and thought we might be a good match. After my first visit with Dr. Escobedo I was absolutely convinced I made the right decision. Dr. Escobedo is kind, compassionate, humorous, and extremely thorough. In fact, my wife even chose him as her primary doctor. My wife and I are blessed to have such a great doctor as Dr. Escobedo. He is a credit to PIH.
