UKIAH, Calif. – Ukiah Valley Medical Center is pleased to welcome pulmonologist Daniel Loube, M.D., to the medical staff.

“Dr. Loube is the first pulmonologist to join our medical staff at UVMC,” said Ukiah Valley Medical Center Chief Executive Officer Gwen Matthews. “Having the depth of a pulmonologist is invaluable for both our inpatients, especially those in critical care, as well as those who need specialist services in the outpatient setting.”

Dr. Loube will see patients in both the Ukiah Valley Rural Health Center and in the hospital as needed.

He looks forward to collaborating with his colleagues on patients who are dealing with pulmonary, critical care or sleep-related problems.

“I appreciate patients who ask questions and want to understand all aspects of their care,” said Dr. Loube. “I will do everything possible to help patients improve their health in a framework that fits best with their lifestyle and beliefs.”

“Dr. Loube has a broad range of skills in the pulmonary field that will benefit our patients with respiratory issues such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial lung disease or sleep disorders,” stated Marvin Trotter, M.D., chief medical officer at UVMC. “He brings an expertise in the areas of pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine.”

When not seeing patients, Dr. Loube treasures spending time with his wife and sons. He enjoys gardening, running and playing basketball, even though one of his sons consistently blocks his shots.

Dr. Loube will see patients at the Ukiah Valley Rural Health Center. His office is located at 260 Hospital Drive, Suite 103. To schedule an appointment please call 707-463-7490.
