About

Laura Norton Petrovich operates Island Family Medicine at 1224 10th Street in Coronado, one of the few dual-boarded internal medicine and pediatrics practices in the 92118 ZIP. She graduated from the University of Miami Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine in 1998 and completed her combined med-peds residency at UC San Diego, building a practice that treats infants through geriatric patients under one roof — a pediatric continuity that extends to preventive oral-health referrals at Coronado Pediatric Dentistry for her youngest patients. California license A72085 covers her specializations in ADHD management, allergy testing and immunotherapy, asthma protocols, chronic pain evaluation, and arthritis treatment for the island's aging population. Bilingual English-Spanish consultations address the same military-family demographic that cycles through Coronado with each Naval Base deployment rotation. Hospital privileges at Sharp Coronado Hospital, Sharp Memorial, Sharp Grossmont, and Sharp Mary Birch Hospital for Women and Newborns support the full primary-to-specialist referral pipeline, including cardiology coordination through San Diego Heart & Vascular for patients presenting with hypertension, heart failure, or diabetes-related cardiovascular risk. Highest-tier cases involve multi-system chronic disease management pairing insulin-titration protocols, antihypertensive regimens, and statin therapy within coordinated care plans spanning internal medicine, endocrinology, and cardiology referrals.
