Meet the Doctors

    When we opened the doors of Sinel Corporation Medical, it was with a strong

commitment to positively participate in the health education of families living and

working in the Los Angeles area. 

 

From day one, we began getting to know our neighbors by joining community programs and

offering Community Outreach Programs to the various neighborhoods in Los Angeles.  The

positive comments received regarding our programs have been as gratifying as watching our

patients quickly heal and return to work feeling renewed enthusiasm for life!
