The UCLA Center for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases brings a new approach to patient care for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. We are redefining value of care around three primary aspects of patients’ daily lives: disease control, quality of life, and productivity (at work or school). We have created a Value Quotient (VQ) which monitors these three aspects continuously. Our mission at the UCLA Center for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases is to raise patients’ annual Value Quotient (VQ) in a cost-effective manner. Our revolutionary Home Care program continuously captures information on patients’ Value Quotient (VQ) and generates a valuable decision support model for direct patient care. Patients who participate in the program benefit from instant feedback and on-demand eConsulting provided by nurse specialists. Request an appointment today to learn more about our exciting Home Care program by emailing us at [email protected]. The UCLA Center for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases will pioneer alternative treatment options including stem cell therapy for patients suffering from debilitating inflammation and disease. Our patients can also become involved with the latest clinical trial studies by contacting us at [email protected]. In order to increase the Value Quotient (VQ) of patients continually, the UCLA Center for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases emphasizes constant innovation and transformation to preventive health care. This is achieved by a highly advanced research infrastructure, which is built around the UCLA care delivery systems. Scientific progress will be translated directly back to individual patient care, resulting in better disease control and, in turn, improved Value Quotients (VQs). Improving our health system begins with fresh ideas and practical steps. The UCLA Center for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases has now begun this value-based program and invites you to participate! Please contact [email protected] today to discover more ways to get involved.

The MacDonald Medical Research Laboratories provide a centralized site for biomedical research in several disciplines. A gift from longtime UCLA benefactors Gordon and Virginia MacDonald enabled construction of the laboratories. Gordon MacDonald attended UCLA from 1927-1930.
Established in 2007, Operation Mend is a pioneering program. It combines the best of the military's resources with the skills of UCLA Health System for a comprehensive and collaborative approach to healing United States military personnel wounded and disfigured in Iraq and Afghanistan. Envisioned by Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center Board and Executive Committee member Ronald A. Katz and his wife, Maddie, Operation Mend's original goal was to give returning service members with severe facial injuries access to the Army's best burn center and the nation's best plastic and reconstructive surgeons. In a partnership with Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC), a leading burn and rehabilitation center in San Antonio, Texas, the V.A. Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System, and UCLA Health System, Operation Mend started with facial reconstruction.

Established in 1980, Asian Pacific Health Corps (APHC) at the University of California, Los Angeles, is a student run community service organization devoted to serving disadvantaged Asian Pacific Islander (API) communities that have minimal access to health care and limited financial resources. Our Faculty Advisor is Dr. Benjamin Woo. In the past, APHC volunteers have provided blood pressure, glucose, and cholesterol screenings in various venues throughout the greater Los Angeles area. Today, APHC offers a broader preventive health intervention and education program to promote health awareness in diverse API communities. In the past 32 years, APHC’s ever-evolving vision has addressed the dynamic challenges and the changing needs of our API communities. Our volunteers are trained and certified by the American Health Association and/or medical professionals in screening procedures. Volunteers are also required to complete the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) training, provide proof of immunization record, and sign the Waiver of Liability, Assumption of Risk, and Indemnity Agreement. Once adequately trained, APHC’s student volunteers made visits to health fairs, temples, and supermarkets to provide free blood pressure, BMI/body fat analysis, and health education. On average, APHC attended at least six health sites each quarter, and APHC volunteers were able to screen about 120 participants at each site within 4-6 hours. In realizing that there is also a need for more comprehensive preventive health resources, we organize three community health fairs a year. Last year, we held one at Our Lady of Peace (OLP) in North Hills in Winter, and one at Castelar Elementary School in Chinatown (CCHF) in Spring, and one at Monterey Park (MPHF) in Fall. This year, we will introduce a new health fair during the winter quarter: the Rosemead Community Health Fair (RCHF). These health fairs offer a multi-disciplined approach to bridging healthcare disparities. The synergy of dozens of health educators ranging from dentistry to optometry to mammography constitutes a powerful new avenue to help empower our communities through better health. These health fairs, the synthesis of decades-long service to the community and culmination of months of labor, characterize a growing segment of APHC’s effort. In our goal of promoting awareness of health issues plaguing the API population on a local and national level, APHC has been successful in having a positive impact on the communities it serves. APHC also sets out to enhance student learning experience by allowing its volunteers to interact directly with participants. Through direct one-on-one connection with participants, we are able to effectively promote health awareness while forming relationships with the community. In addition, APHC acts as a support group and provides the volunteers with a number of networking and leadership opportunities as well as pre-professional information. We assist students by establishing mentorship programs with graduate students, holding discussions on medical and graduate schools, and encouraging current volunteers to participate in leadership positions offered within the organization. Now, in its 29th year, APHC continues its invaluable work in both the UCLA community and in the local API communities.

With the exceptions of rare endocrine disorders, people become obese because they consume more calories than they expend. This is not news. Diet and exercise specialists have known this for over a century. However, not only have they failed miserably at solving the problem, it has reached crisis status, so the focus needs to shift. We do not need another diet, another trainer, another thigh or abs-master. We need to understand why people over eat and under exercise. That is what we are dedicated to finding. To this end our work employs cultural competency in exposing the underlying mechanisms that cause people to over eat and under exercise, despite health compromises that inevitably deconstruct living and punctuate life. Prevailing ignorance continues to shroud eating disorders with heavy veils of stigma and social judgment. Articulating poorly understood, or unknown, neurobiological mechanisms underlying ingestive behaviors is vital. In doing so, we help intervene on the concert of public ignorance and private misery that is the signature of a true human crisis. Clinically, maladaptive ingestive behaviors present as pain and endure as suffering. Therefore, we suspect it must be a mind body concern because pain occurs in the body, but suffering occurs in the mind. Thus, we intend to address both by employing the science of western medicine and the art of eastern healing. More importantly, we sustain a judgment-free, solution-focused research environment that stands with Hippocrates. Thereby, we "do no harm." In the end we will join forces with fellow obesity researchers and clinicians on our campus, and campuses around the world in creating in-patient, out-patient and prevention programs that treat the various destructive manifestations of maladaptive ingestive behaviors, and the subsequent deleterious metabolic syndromes. However, that cannot occur until the fundamental mechanisms that allow the disease to occur and persist are clearly understood. Fixing the troubled human relationship with malfunctioning ingestive behavior is like fixing any human relationship in distress. The first step is figuring out how and why it does not work. Hence, our mission, our passion and our devotion to elucidating the substrata that compel and sustain maladaptive ingestive behaviors and obesity.
