Elsa L. Lerro, MD

In my 25 years of experience as a board-certified internal medicine physician, I have been rewarded with long-term relationships with my patients through patient-centered medicine. I am passionate about taking care of each patient's unique needs and concerns. As your personal physician, I practice this very important philosophy of patient care - "look at the patient and listen to them very closely”- as the details of their history and examination is in correlation with results of appropriate diagnostic tests can lead to determining what ails them. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, taking time with every patient is paramount to providing more personal and proactive care. 

As a primary care physician, I focus on prevention, diagnosis and treatment of adult diseases including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes and heart disease, with an emphasis on lifestyle modifications, increase in activities and evidence-based recommendations. At any stage of your adult life, I seek to be your healthcare advocate for comprehensive and personalized care. Having a partner in health who knows you personally can help lead you to better health outcomes. Your wellness is my primary goal. 

As a female internist, I bring special perspectives, experience, compassion and a deep understanding of women's health needs. I also have a special interest in diagnosing and treating sleep apnea.

My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostics tests that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices. My practice also offers same- or next-day appointments and telemedicine visits when appropriate.

My practice serves the areas of Fresno and Clovis.
