About Azzah I. Arikat, MD

I became a physician to help foster and maintain the overall well-being and health of individuals in assisting them to reach their full potential and life goals. My medical philosophy is to optimize chronic disease management and to provide preventive medicine tools and strategies for each of my patients so that they maintain the best state of health long-term. I enjoy reading, yoga and taking in the beautiful San Diego scenery on walks and hikes outside of work. I also love museums and the performing arts.
