Emanuela Bonfoco MD PhD is a board-certified family medicine physician with a PhD in neuroscience from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm and completed her Family Medicine residency at PIH Health Whittier Hospital. She is passionate about providing comprehensive care to patients across all stages of life—from newborns to seniors. This breadth of practice and the opportunity to serve entire families with continuity and compassion drew her to the family medicine specialty.
Within family medicine, Dr. Bonfoco has developed special expertise in women's health and urgent care. Her background in hospital medicine and research distinguishes her approach to patient care, as she brings a depth of clinical experience to every patient encounter. Each day, she tries to make meaningful differences in her patients' lives, whether by managing chronic conditions, addressing acute concerns, or supporting preventive health.
Originally from Italy, Dr. Bonfoco has called the United States home for over 20 years, bringing a unique cultural perspective to her practice. Outside of medicine, she finds balance through swimming and cooking.
