Dr. Brent Michael is Now One of the Largest Primary Care Practices in Santa Monica

SANTA MONICA, Calif., Aug. 11, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Throughout 2020, Dr. Michael, MD and his team were one of a handful of primary care doctors in the Santa Monica area to stay open during the "COVID-19 Crisis." Continuing to serve patients has helped Dr. Michael gain the trust of thousands of patients in 90404. At a time when many patients could not receive the care and treatment that they needed, Dr. Brent Michael continued to see patients.

Medical illnesses and conditions do not stop because a different sort of pandemic has arisen. When many patients were being turned away from their familiar medical practices, Dr. Michael was not only continuing to treat his current patients, but he also welcomed patients from other practices who needed care. As a result, Dr. Brent Michael's practice was asked to take over the seeing and treatment of patients from the practices of Dr. Boyle and Dr. Sheik. The new patients that Dr. Michael is caring for now make his practice the largest Primary Care Provider in Santa Monica, CA, 90404.

"My practice is happy and honored to take over the care of these patients. It is a testament from Blue Cross, Aetna, Cigna, and Blue Shield that they have faith in our care. Even more important is that patients have appreciated the fact that we have remained available 24/7, through it all. My team and I are all very grateful and proud to be the largest Primary Care Provider in 90404, with over 5,000 active patient charts."
