About

Carlos Pena a Physician Associate practices Emergency Medicine in Woodland, CA. He prefers patients use his first name and engage him as a member of the community. He assesses patients who seek immediate medical attention at any time of day or night. Emergency Medicine Providers are typically "jack of all trades and master of none."  They are trained to efficiently work with each patient and situation no matter how acute or life-threatening.  He examines patients autonomously, determines means of testing, diagnoses conditions, and decides the best treatment methods.  He manages patients highs and lows of their daily lives. All the while seeking the best outcome for them and providing his best efforts to educate patients about their medical situation. He believes medicine is very much educational and the patient plays the greatest role in their outcomes.  In his free time he enjoys spending time with his family and spending time in the outdoors riding dirt bikes at racing events.  He enjoys hosting dinners with friends and family. He and his wife enjoy traveling with the family and taking in new experiences.
