Professional treatments for every patient
Sharnjit S. Purewal
Dr. Purewal focuses on preventing disease by helping his patients transition to a healthier lifestyle. Recognizing the Mind–body connection I look at the mental as well as the physical stress on the body. He has always loved science. When he was 8 years old, his father landed in the hospital with a heart condition, after which he was never the same. Becoming a doctor helped Dr. Purewal really make a
difference in his community by helping people live healthier, fuller lives. As an active member of the community, Dr. Purewal has helped the Sikh community organize food distributions for the Central California Food Bank.
