Board-certified by the American Board of Family Medicine, Dr. Marife P. Dy Stroika, MD completed her medical degree at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth in 2002 and practices family medicine at Sharp Rees-Stealy Downtown in downtown San Diego's Bankers Hill. Family medicine scope includes pediatric wellness exams, adult preventive screenings, and chronic-disease management for diabetes, hypertension, and asthma, with oral-health coordination routed to providers like Park Dental Arts in Bankers Hill. Residency training in family medicine at UC San Diego Medical Center — completed in 2005 — included emergency medicine rotations that inform the practice's capacity to evaluate acute presentations, from lacerations and fractures to respiratory distress and chest-pain rule-outs. Behavioral-health screening using PHQ-9 and GAD-7 validated instruments identifies patients who may benefit from psychiatric medication management or psychotherapy referrals coordinated with providers such as Hope & Heart Nursing Corporation in the Gaslamp Quarter. The Sharp Rees-Stealy integrated campus connects family medicine orders to on-site laboratory draws, digital radiography, and specialist consultations across 31 medical subspecialties without requiring external records transfers.
