UCLA Health
Providence's partnership with UCLA Health is twofold. One aspect
involves UCLA Health specialists for obstetrics, gastroenterology,
pulmonology, and cardiology opening practices in the community
and joining the staff of Providence Little Company of Mar y Medical
Centers San Pedro and Torrance.
The second aspect has been ongoing for several years with UCLA
Health transferring patients who have had a lung, heart, or liver
transplant to Providence Little Company of Mar y Medical Center
San Pedro for highly specialized care.

Infectious Disease Specialist, and Jo Vournas, MD, Emergency
Department physician and addressed the early stages of the
pandemic. Watch the presentation here.
On October 7th, Anita Sircar, MD and Alex Hakim, MD, ICU Intensivist,

as well as the treatment protocols and research studies Providence
Little Company of Mar y Medical Center Torrance is participating in
to help manage COVID-19 care. Access that presentation here.
You are also welcomed to view these community updates on our
Little Company of Mar y Facebook page and share it with others.
Growth and Focus on our Acute
Care Centers of Excellence and
Clinical Institutes
While the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the patient volumes
at both medical centers we continue to focus on growth of our
Acute Care Centers of Excellence (ACCE). Both ministries continue
to execute on our ACCE strategies in partnership with the Clinical
Institutes to grow and offer the highest level of complex care in our
community.
