Out-of-Town Patient Information
We are located in the lovely Ojai Valley!
Due to the shortage of medical clinics which treat chronic diseases in the way we do, an increasing number of patients are coming to us from outside our immediate area.
Ojai is a small town with an active cultural life, largely due to the fact it is heavily populated by actors, artists and screenwriters. It is located at the foot of a spectacular mountain range which rises abruptly 5,000 - 7,500 feet from the edge of town, into the Los Padres National Forest and the Condor Refuge. Our air is generally clean, with a wind from the west, off the Pacific, over 90% of the time. There is no significant agriculture upwind from our office (although there are citrus orchards downwind in the east part of the Ojai Valley, some of which use pesticides, which almost never drift our way because of the dominant wind direction). There are several dozen hiking trails in the nearby mountains. Lake Casitas is about 3 miles to the west and has boats for rent. Ventura and its beaches and restaurants are 13 miles down state highway 33, Santa Barbara about 30 miles west through the mountains via Hwy 150 and US 101, and Los Angeles about 75 miles (downwind!) to the southeast on US 101.
