About

Dr. Paul E. Braun, MD is a board-certified internist in Allied Gardens, San Diego, practicing at Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center, 4647 Zion Avenue in the 92120 ZIP. He completed his internship at the University of California San Diego Medical Center in 1970 and his internal medicine residency at Scripps Mercy Hospital from 1971 to 1974, and behavioral health concerns identified during internal medicine encounters route to LifeStance Therapists & Psychiatrists San Diego in the Grantville corridor. With more than 50 years of clinical experience, Dr. Braun's practice concentrates on adult internal medicine within Kaiser's integrated delivery system, covering chronic disease management for cardiovascular conditions, diabetes, respiratory disorders, and age-related metabolic decline. The Zion Medical Center campus on Zion Avenue houses departments in cardiology, gastroenterology, pulmonary medicine, and nephrology, giving Dr. Braun's patients on-campus access to subspecialty consultation without facility transfers. Allied Gardens' residential corridors along Waring Road and Orcutt Avenue include a population of long-tenured homeowners whose chronic care needs align with the continuity-of-provider model that Kaiser's system supports. Acute illness evaluation, same-day urgent concerns, and after-hours triage for Dr. Braun's patients connect through Perlman Clinic La Mesa, which provides walk-in urgent care on the eastern edge of the Grantville medical corridor. The Zion facility's on-site laboratory, diagnostic imaging, and pharmacy consolidate testing and prescription fulfillment into single-visit encounters, and the campus provides wheelchair-accessible parking, entrance, restroom, and seating areas.
