Shadow Hills is a more residential foothill area where patients often prefer calm planning, deliberate appointments, and fewer unnecessary return trips. That matters because comfort care usually works best when the care plan matches how patients actually schedule visits, handle follow-up, and decide whether to keep moving with treatment.
When Shadow Hills patients ask about comfort care, the conversation is usually about more than the service itself. It is often about medical visits that feel thorough, calm, and clearly explained, how that goal connects to hospice & palliative care, and whether the plan will still feel realistic two or three weeks after the first appointment.

NPMD; Amy, one of the smartest, kindest, compassionate and brilliant Nurse Practitioners. She offers expert medical care and medical advice in a way that you understand. When she examines you and reviews your medical issues, not one detail is missed. she explains treatment options for you in a manner that is precise, individualized and understandable. When she discusses your medical problems she is so kind, soft spoken, you can feel the discussion is coming from her heart, her deep understanding of medicine and human mankind. When you are with her YOU are not a patient with a chart number and a hurried 15 minute office visit. You are sitting with a person that makes you feel you count and that you are part of her medical family. I have been coming to NPMD since it's opening in Encino, Ca. The office is very clean and quite beautiful. George, RN is so nice and so smart as well. Amy's entire staff duplicate her and her vision for what 5 star medical care should be. By the way if you are thirsty the office has the best coffee, made just for you as well as a variety of cold healthy beverages to drink. The location is easy to get to and the parking is relatively inexpensive, compared to most LA parking. My husband comes here now and every time I get a chance I always recommend that my friends or just people I speak to come to NPMD. If you can just come and visit NPMD, I am well, thriving and very very happy with the care and attention I receive for this unbelievable practice. Thank You NPMD and Amy

NPMD is not your typical type of care — they are rare and one of a kind. The professionalism takes your entire expectation to the next level. Let me begin by saying, when you step into the clinic, it feels like a luxury health center. Amy has been a blessing sent to my family and me. I could go on about her forever. She values each and every one of her patients. She explains everything clearly and makes sure all of your questions are answered. My healthcare needs have become so much easier because of her. George goes above and beyond for us... He has been so patient and kind with my 10,000 questions. No matter how busy he is, he always makes sure to be available to help. One thing I can say is that he will be sure to cure you with his big smile and energy, even on your worst day. I just want to say your work made me look so flawless and natural. I’m so glad to have found you both. Thank you to you and your staff for making us all feel so welcomed. NPMD is where love, care, perfection, and excellence come together!!!
