About the area
The Antelope Valley is northeast of Los Angeles, at the western tip of the Mojave Desert between the Tehachapi, Sierra Pelona, and San Gabriel Mountains. The Antelope Valley offers good schools, relatively affordable housing, and easy access to nature - without the Los Angeles traffic. Our Lancaster and Palmdale facilities are an easy commute from the Santa Clarita Valley or other parts of Los Angeles.

Working here
Antelope Valley's physicians flourish within a close-knit, family culture that encourages individual leadership and creative problem-solving. Our physicians--many with young families--enjoy flexible scheduling arrangements and a variety of social activities and community involvement opportunities that fit their lifestyles. We place a high priority on creating a fulfilling and rewarding work-life balance, balancing autonomy and independence with the stability of the Permanente system. Physicians are encouraged to develop a career path that works for their individual goals and interests, while meeting the needs of a welcoming and grateful patient population.
