SCU Health Expands into OC with Location at DISC Sports & Spine
Specialties include tactical sports medicine, acupuncture and Chinese medicine, and chiropractic services.
SCU Health, Integrative Health & Medicine is now offering its services in Orange County through a new location at DISC Sports & Spine Center in Newport Beach. The expansion provides OC residents even more options when it comes to their holistic health.
SCU Health, a division of Southern California University of Health Sciences, will keep its main office in Whittier, but expand its tactical sports medicine, acupuncture and Chinese medicine, and chiropractic services to DISC at 3501 Jamboree Road, Suite 1250, Newport Beach, CA 92660.
“We’ve been looking to expand our geographic footprint for a while, and opening an office at DISC Sports & Spine Center is the perfect opportunity made possible by a generous donation from Dr. Stephen and Mrs. Alice Kwan,” said Dr. Melissa Nagare, Chief Clinical Officer at SCU Health. “SCU’s expertise in sports treatment, tactical sports medicine and pain management, coupled with DISC’s reputation as a premier provider of minimally invasive spine procedures and advanced arthroscopic techniques, means Southern Californians can access integrated care in one convenient location.”
