Dr Jolie Pfahler ABEM

Dr Pfahler is board-certified by ABEM (American Board of Emergency Medicine) since 1998. A graduate of the UCLA Medical Center/Olive View Emergency Medicine program, Dr. Pfahler continued her career at St John’s Health Center in Santa Monica and then here at Los Robles Regional Medical Center since 2017.

For some reason, HCDTO seems to attract providers who love the water. Dr. Pfahler enjoys anything outdoors and with her family, especially on the ocean. Her favorite personal days are on the beach with her husband and her 3 kids.

Those highly-trained Mom skills help Dr Pfahler dig deep into patient medical problems. She recognizes that the initial medical presentation may not always be the real issue. She listens well and readily discusses many concerns, often depression, anxiety, addiction or severe fears about major diseases. Dr. Pfahler is honored to be part of the patient-doctor relationship. She clarifies that it is not a "physician-patient relationship." The patient comes first. Patients are not alone in their medical issues and care. “We are a team.”

Earning a Bachelors of Science in Biology from USC, Dr. Pfahler then graduated from the UCLA School of Medicine. She  completed her internship and residency at two challenging hospitals: UCLA-Harbor Medical Center and UCLA Medical Center/Olive View. Dr Pfahler also enjoys teaching at Los Robles Regional Medical Center and is tightly tied to her community from USC to UCLA, from Calabasas to Montecito. She adds, “I am honored to visit patients in their home and grateful to provide medical care” at House Call Doctor Thousand Oaks.
