With over 310,000 residents calling Riverside home and more than 4.6 million people living across the Inland Empire, this rapidly expanding Southern California region demands robust healthcare infrastructure. Medical professionals here serve diverse patient populations with needs spanning Urgent Care and Family Practice to Orthopedic Surgery and Cardiovascular Medicine.

Local health systems adapted rapidly, implementing drive-through testing, telehealth expansion, and surge capacity planning to protect community health while maintaining essential medical services.
University of California, Riverside School of Medicine represents a newer addition to the region’s medical landscape, opening in 2013 to address the Inland Empire’s physician shortage. This medical school partners with regional healthcare facilities to train the next generation of physicians while addressing healthcare disparities in underserved communities throughout Riverside and San Bernardino counties.

The region’s healthcare tapestry also includes numerous specialty clinics, surgical centers, and primary care practices serving neighborhoods from Canyon Crest to La Sierra.
California’s healthcare regulations present unique challenges for medical practices. Between state-specific billing requirements, Medi-Cal complexities, and the state’s stringent privacy laws, administrative burden can overwhelm clinical staff without proper support systems in place.
