More than 50 years ago, a country doctor and a handful of forward-thinking residents had a vision for their small towns of Simi and Santa Susana.
They would create a special place of healing in the picturesque valley they called home.
Today, we are the largest medical center and only accredited chest pain center serving Simi Valley.
We are committed to treating the whole person - physically, mentally, spiritually and socially.
That promise of wholeness is what inspires us to care for this community.
Our 144-bed acute care hospital and network of primary care and specialist locations are supported by 900 associates, 275 physicians, and 150 volunteers.
We are also the first Center of Excellence for Robotic Surgery in Ventura County.
