Lotus East-West Medical Center - Santa Monica CA

Welcome to Lotus East-West Medical Center

Welcome to Lotus East-West Medical Center, Santa Monica's first holistic, primary care medical center to achieve green business certification. Providing quality time and care within a peaceful setting sets this medical center apart from the high volume, fast-paced standard medical model. Our carefully selected healthcare professionals specialize in acupuncture and Oriental medicine, naturopathic medicine, allopathic and osteopathic medicine (medical doctors), psychotherapy, and health and wellness consulting.

Our intention is to fulfill a community need for holistic, primary care medicine. In addition to treating the primary health concern, whether it be symptoms or other underlying conditions, this center recognizes the importance, like in nature, of healing through transformation. It is by listening that we treat the entire individual. We gain inspiration from this model of healthcare, and as such, value community and promote good practices for the environment. This is our way of being mindful and compassionate. Thank you and blessings extend for your good health and happiness.

Lotus East-West Medical Center is an environmentally friendly, holistic, primary care medical center.  Our intention of healing goes beyond treating a simple symptom.  We take extra time and care in working with our patients in order to treat the root of their health concerns in addition to being mindful of our center and the planet we live in.
