Orthopedic care for Brentwood. Board-certified specialists at LAOSS Wilshire.

Brentwood is one of the most active zip codes in West LA. Between Brentwood Country Club, Riviera Country Club just over the Sunset hill, the San Vicente median packed with runners and cyclists at sunrise, and the Mandeville Canyon and Sullivan Canyon trail systems above the neighborhood, our patients here are on their feet (and on their joints) constantly. Add in a heavy concentration of professionals, entertainment-industry executives, and families balancing kids' club sports, and the orthopedic complaints we see from 90049 cluster in a very specific way.

The injuries most Brentwood patients come in with are the predictable ones for a tennis-and-golf community: tennis elbow and rotator cuff strains from twice-a-week doubles, golf-related shoulder, wrist, and lower-back issues, runner's knee and IT-band syndrome from San Vicente and the Brentwood Glen loops, road-rash and clavicle fractures from cycling crashes on PCH and the canyon descents, and acute ski and surf injuries from weekend trips. We also see the everyday hip, knee, and spine conditions (labral tears, meniscus injuries, disc pain, arthritis) that bring most people to an orthopedic specialist.

UCLA Medical Center sits right at the edge of the neighborhood, which is a great option for emergencies, but for scheduled specialist care most Brentwood patients want something faster and more focused than a major academic center. Our Wilshire Blvd office is the practical access point, about 20 to 30 minutes door-to-door depending on traffic, with the same board-certified subspecialty roster you'd find at any major LA hospital, same-week visits, and a team that's used to scheduling around demanding calendars.

LAOSS is in-network with every major PPO carrier Brentwood patients commonly carry: Anthem Blue Cross PPO, Aetna PPO, Cigna PPO, UnitedHealthcare PPO, Health Net PPO, and Blue Shield of California PPO. If you have a PPO plan, you can book any LAOSS specialist directly, no PCP referral required. This is the fastest path to care, and it's how the majority of our Brentwood patients are seen.

HMO members (Kaiser, IPA / managed-care plans) still need a referral from their primary care physician before being seen; once that's in place, we coordinate with your IPA. Workers' compensation claims are accepted at the Wilshire office, including for entertainment-industry patients with production-related injuries. Cash-pay is also welcome. We publish transparent self-pay pricing for visits, imaging, and procedures, and we'll provide an itemized superbill for out-of-network reimbursement.
