About

Michael Magpile, MD operates an internal medicine practice at Scripps Clinic Rancho San Diego on Calle Verde in La Mesa's 91941 ZIP, specializing in geriatric primary care and multi-system disease management. The practice's geriatric caseload generates care-transition coordination with home-health agencies such as Visiting Angels Senior Home Care for elderly patients requiring post-hospitalization support between Scripps clinic visits. Board-certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine since 1991 and holding FACP designation, the practice draws on training from Meharry Medical College and a UCLA Kennamer Fellowship in Internal Medicine, with additional service as section chief of internal medicine at Scripps Clinic Rancho San Diego from 2008 through 2012. Renal function decline in the practice's diabetic and hypertensive patient panels requires nephrology subspecialty coordination with providers including Balboa Nephrology - La Mesa for glomerular filtration monitoring and dialysis-access planning. The highest-complexity cases at the Calle Verde office involve concurrent insulin titration, warfarin anticoagulation management, and staged diuretic protocols for patients with overlapping congestive heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and hepatic cirrhosis.
