Get to Know Our ProvidersTiffany Pariva, MD - Family Medicine Resident Dr. Tiffany Pariva is a first-year family medicine resident at Lawndale Christian Health Center, drawn to its mission of combining faith and healthcare. Originally from Arizona, she discovered her passion for faith-based medicine while volunteering at a clinic in Los Angeles. There she saw firsthand the power of compassionate, holistic care. Tiffany shares, "I wanted to work at a place where my faith and my medical practice could come together, and Lawndale was the perfect fit." As an immigrant, she understands the challenges many of her patients face and strives to provide not only medical support, but also a sense of comfort and connection.
