The California Dept. of Public Health along with the Center for Disease Control require masks to be worn in ALL health care facilities. COVID is a respiratory virus; as such all staff, patients and visitors must adhere to this directive at all Riverside Medical Clinic locations.

Our doctors are also happy to help educate you in proper foot care. Referrals are required from your primary care physician in order to see our podiatrists.
A podiatrist is a doctor of podiatric medicine (DPM). After four years of rigorous foot and ankle training in podiatric medical school, DPMs must receive a minimum of two years of postgraduate residency training.
