About the area

Loma Linda is situated 56 miles west of Los Angeles, California in a suburban area ideally located between ocean beaches and mountains allowing surfing, hiking, skiing, and other outdoor activities. This region also has excellent private and public-school systems and as it is located outside Los Angeles, the housing is more affordable.

Since opening in 1909, Loma Linda University's School of Medicine has been training skilled medical professionals with a commitment to Christian service. The school has always endeavored to combine the best medical science with caring, Christian compassion. Loma Linda students are trained in a context emphasizing the patient's needs and preventive care to offset future disease.

Loma Linda University Faculty Medical Group is affiliated with Loma Linda University Medical Center, Children’s 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. Our Children's Hospital is a 343-bed facility that provides tertiary care that includes cardiac, kidney, and bone marrow transplantation services.

For over 100 years, Loma Linda University Health has been dedicated to excellence in health care, research, and education. We have built and will move into a new state-of-the-art children's hospital in 2021. We are also greatly expanding and enhancing our already robust research enterprise through a new collaborative research center and program endowments.

Loma Linda University Health continues to lead in integrating a faith-based approach to whole person health care.
