We appreciate the resilience shown by our physicians and employees during this disruption and we thank our patients for their patience and continued loyalty to our facilities.

Exciting news from Washington, DC! 🏥 Drs. Ricardo Grant and Leandro Ramirez from RWMC showcased their expertise at the prestigious American Thoracic Society (ATS) event. They presented thematic posters highlighting compelling case reports from our institution.

The event provided them with valuable opportunities to attend seminars, engage in debates, and network with esteemed providers, researchers, and educators in the field of pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine. Their dedication to advancing global health is commendable. Notably, they were joined by Dr. Ajit Thota, a former RWMC Pulmonary Fellow and current PGY-5 critical care fellow at Memorial Sloan Kettering, NY. Together, they are shaping the future of healthcare. 👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️💡

Prospect Medical Holdings, Inc. recently experienced a data security incident that has disrupted our operations. Upon learning of this, we took our systems offline to protect them and launched an investigation with the help of third-party cybersecurity specialists. While our investigation continues, we are focused on addressing the pressing needs of our patients as we work diligently to return to normal operations as quickly as possible.

Both hospitals continue to accept walk-ins through the emergency departments.

Scheduled surgical procedures remain as planned unless patients are otherwise notified by their physician’s office.

Visiting hours are not affected.
