“I've been going to Imperial Beach Health Center for over 3 years. From the girls in check-in to the upstairs check-out, it has always been a positive experience. The facility is always clean and all the staff is professional and kind. I love "Jude" my midwife who does all my women's stuff! She is very kind, gentle and very knowledgeable. This Health Center is a 5-star facility! They even have a lab on site and Denise is the greatest! Very fortunate to have found this place! Excellent Heath care!”
