About Benjamin Saltman, MD
I decided to become a physician in order to help people and to satisfy my fascination with science. I treat patients as if they were a member of my family. I believe it is important to develop a solid doctor-patient relationship. It is the foundation upon which we can develop a treatment plan. I like to take the time to get to know my patients and ensure that we both understand the state of their disease.
I spend my time outside of work enjoying San Diego’s wonderful outdoor activities with my wife and twins. We love to visit the parks, zoos and beaches. I also love to play tennis and cook.
