Loma Linda University Faculty Medical Group is affiliated with Loma Linda University Medical Center, Childrens Hospital, and School of Medicine, with the mission to deliver whole person care at a world class level of clinical excellence. The Medical Center serves as the largest tertiary referral source in both Riverside and San Bernardino counties with a surrounding population approaching 4 million.

The CAC is an outpatient clinic of LLUMC and is located at 700 East Gilbert Street in San Bernardino, California.

The nationally accredited CAC is the only resource in San Bernardino County (the largest county in the United States) that provides coordinated medical and forensic evaluations for maltreated children. The freestanding location allows for streamlined services for patients as well as enabling easy communication with our multidisciplinary partners including law enforcement, prosecutors, child protective services, mental health providers, and victim advocates. It is a dynamic group of professionals who are passionate about providing high-quality forensic evaluation services to the children of our county. CAC physicians provide both inpatient and outpatient consultations for suspected abuse and neglect. The CAC is active in education for pediatric residents, community members, and service providers.
