Gene A. Kallenberg, M.D.
Family Medicine

One of many doctors in his family, Dr. Kallenberg developed his interest in medicine early from observing his father's approach to patient care in his general practice in Cincinnati. He has learned the importance of being sensitive to people's needs and educating them about their health care. He has also learned that getting to know one's patients and establishing long-term relationships with them and their families provides one of the greatest rewards of being a physician.
"I am interested in bringing together the practices of family medicine and mental health care, combining them into a more seamless, patient-friendly service that recognizes the fact that the mind is connected to the rest of the body and that problems in either area affect the other."
In his free time Dr. Kallenberg enjoys exercising, playing tennis and reading. He is also interested in learning to draw cartoons and since coming to San Diego, in learning to sail.
