A Word from the President and CEO
As a leader of Pacific Hospital of Long Beach for the last thirteen years, I have observed the transformation of this healthcare facility from a fine community hospital to a world class medical center serving a vast number of Medicare, Medi-Cal, Workers' Compensation, and private insurance patients.
We specialize in surgeries in general and orthopedic and spine surgeries in particular. The hospital has become a state renowned center for complicated orthopedic and spine procedures. We have had the privilege of implanting the first artificial disk in the Long Beach area.
Our employees and I, welcome a community deserving up-to-date, comprehensive inpatient and outpatient healthcare services from our state-of-the-art, modern facility. From emergency services to intensive care, we strive to provide comfort, recovery from pain and illness, as well as acute rehabilitation.
Thank you for visiting our website. We look forward to helping in your time of need.
Always at your service,
About Us
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to heal with compassion and to perform with distinction.
OUR VISION
- Improve the hospital’s Orthopedic and Spine Center of Excellence
- Achieve exceptional financial performance to enhance hospital services
- Improve the vertically integrated ancillary, outpatient and inpatient surgery system

OUR HISTORY
Pacific Hospital of Long Beach is a full-service, teaching hospital with 184 licensed acute care beds.
We are fully accredited and have all the innovative technology that is expected of a medical center but with an important difference.
Our environment is small enough to assure patients of calm, homelike surroundings while providing a capable and professional staff. The result is a perfect blend of sensitivity and technology.
OUR FUTURE
With our new Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system we are staying above the curve when it comes to blending excellent health care and state of the art technology.
An Electronic Medical Record is a secured electronic file of patient history, medical transcription notes, billing information, and all other information necessary to have a complete patient profile.
The EMR System allows us many benefits including increased efficiency for our staff and more security for our patients information.
