Our Team

Every hyperbaric therapy session - including emergency care - is directly supervised by a physician trained in hyperbaric medicine. Our staff is comprised of physicians, nurses and hyperbaric technicians.

The physicians, nurses and technicians of the UCLA Hyperbaric Medicine specialize in managing complex, difficult wounds and helping with all patient needs. Each patient receives a tailored treatment plan that combines traditional standards in wound management with state-of-the-art technology to ensure effective results. Whether you have a minor non-healing wound, compromised surgical wound or a late radiation injury, our staff is experienced in each diagnosis that is treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
