Dr. Ross Pirkle, MD – Walnut Creek, CA

As your Personal Physician I feel personally fulfilled when I can act as your advocate for your health goals and serve as a navigator through the calm and rough seas of health and illness.

I bring to our table 17 years of practice in the John Muir Community and the tremendous fortune of having been trained and educated at two of our top Universities; U.C. Berkeley and U.C. San Francisco, where I still maintain many of my collegial relationships.

My 4 years serving as Chief of Medicine at John Muir, Walnut Creek helped to further my relationships with colleagues in the medical and surgical sub-specialties which helps you, my patient, to be referred to some of the finest and most talented specialists personally and professionally. These are physicians that I have sought to treat myself and my own family.

The joy of practicing Internal Medicine is using all my scientific knowledge and knowing the limitations simultaneously. I firmly believe to achieve optimal health, a plurality of therapies such as Chiropractic, Eastern Medicine, Behavioral health, Rehabilitation therapies, and Body work; may all be necessary.

The greatest reward for me as a personal physician is knowing, understanding, and empowering my patients to achieve their health goals. I believe Cornerstone Primary Care will provide the optimal environment and resources for you and I to build optimal health together.
